Democrats are of course also affected by the corruption of money in politics, which we have to get rid of, but it's critical to realize it is to a far, far lesser degree.

After all, both Democratic politicians and liberal donors believe in the importance of using government at all levels to advance wellbeing. It's a basic identity thing.

Today's Republicans do not, and that is the huge difference that has lead to their intense corruption.
