Except when they conclude that the wealthy are innovators with the New Liberal party. The wealthy appear to be more rent seeking than innovators. Poor people and middle class people are the usual innovators, but they often lose their souls in the desire to maintain their wealth and influence.

Probably Progressive party as an alternative, but I am almost centered between New Liberal, Progressive, and American Labor Party.
