To me it is much more complex than that 4-plex. At our level ,yours and mine,I could see what you are saying, but we are voting on the national level where handouts to the rich or poor are just one aspect of a huge collection of agendas, and on which issue the main parties have seemingly decided to be as close to polar opposites as possible,each keeping being electable in mind of course. It is likely democrats fail on all other items and agendas with you. However, it would be fair to say the issues are much more nuanced than what happens to your paycheck and the self esteem issues of nearly half our country’s populace.
