Nor is either party for the poor, pursuing policies that promote inflation and slow growth which hurts the poor and middle class the most, continuing the slow transfer of money from the middle and lower classes to the richest.
That is all true, but the dems seem somewhat to the left from the republican position.
It's more amazing here where we have currently eight parties in the parliament, and governments are by negotiated coalitions. You still get the workers who want to identify with stock market players and vote accordingly.

They are a bit left of Republicans, but they still promote inflationary policies and their entitlement programs, in the long run, won't do much to help, and indeed will contribute to the evil that is inflation and the erosion of the Middle Class.
