In the US, there is basically one party - the business party. It has two factions, called Democrats and Republicans, which are somewhat different but carry out variations on the same policies.

I'd go further and call it the neoliberal party. Business isn't necessarily evil. But selling out the people to huge multinational corporations is evil. Giving away our resources and institutions to corporations while screwing over small businesses is a problem. These are the same corporations that are their donors, that they buy stocks in and get cushy jobs when they retire.
