Capitalism with its unrelenting drive to maximum profits at all costs will always eventually erode regulations, or capture the regulatory bodies. We had more regulations, more unions, and higher taxes before.

We need different systems with different incentives, or keep repeating this cycle.

I agree with you, both parties are not the same and we need to make sure the fascists don’t win any elections.

It does matter less than being more involved though. If that’s all you can do that’s perfectly fine, but if we really want to fix things we need those who can to be more involved, that’s all.
