The idea that both poltical parties are in co-hoots with special interest groups is an poltical phillosophy being advocated by the 3rd praty groups who desire to become one of the top two major parties.

The problem all started when they got this notion that both poltical camps should unite and work together to get something done in Washington. So both sides attempted to move to the center as moderates. Setting an agenda of watered down bills that would please both sides because they did not take any strong measures in tow.

Then the government got confused and did not see the difference between the rights of individuals and the rights of an business identity. Big Business was given "individual rights" which should not be inalienable to a business. The left wing became more moderate about that agenda as it showly ate away at the middle class section of our country, in favor of the wealthy few and those on welfare, but not in favor of the middle road workers of America.

The Republicans got more rights for the Wealthy Few and the Democrats got more rights for the unemployed, but the middle class was overlooked and were forced to eather move on up into the wealthy brackets or fall into what we now call the working poor.
