a) don't bother to vote - since millionaires win anyway
b) if you do vote, it doesn't matter if you vote Democrat or Republican - since millionaires win anyway.

Sorry, but that's horse excrement.

The Democratic Party, I have said repeatedly here, does a piss poor job of representing the working class

but STILL

Republican control of the house led to the invasion of Iraq
George W. Bush being President and having his own party in control of Congress meant the Bush tax cuts
Democratic control of the House in 2006 meant an increase in the minimum wage.

The hell it doesn't matter which party wins.
