“There is only one party in the United States, the Property Party … and it has two right wings: Republican and Democrat. Republicans are a bit stupider, more rigid, more doctrinaire in their laissez-faire capitalism than the Democrats, who are cuter, prettier, a bit more corrupt — until recently … and more willing than the Republicans to make small adjustments when the poor, the black, the anti-imperialists get out of hand. But, essentially, there is no difference between the two parties.”

      If the Republicans can do all this for bad things and no one can stop them then the Democrats always had the ability to do this for the good things they purport to be in favor of, and actively chose not to (because they actually do not want good things to happen)
