While the Democratic party establishment / "Clinton wing" of the party is as you describe, the "both parties" stuff is not really true and just serves to distract away from and lessen the fact that one party (Republicans) are far more in the pocket of corporations and pro-war than the other. Yes, Dems are too. But not nearly as much as Republicans. Except that's not even remotely true. Corruption is more endemic among Democrats than Republicans, whether it's state senators trying to sell guns to terrorists, mayors selling expensive real estate to their mistresses for a buck, a governor taking bribes for political appointments including a senate seat, or the very frequent misuse of campaign funds. While the Democrats aren't always more pro-war, they're usually in the pockets of corporations, unions, and just everything else because when you expand government there's more money to go around. When you shrink government, there's less money to go around. Bureaucracies are inherently prone to corruption and the party trying to expand bureaucracies is going to be the more corrupt of the two. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ...
