Both the Democrats and Republicans, while being two parties, they both have a distinct singular purpose: To transform America from a soverign nation where freedom, both economic and personal, are no longer the modus operandi, to a facist police state. This is the destination, only difference is the path taken to get there.

The far left have hijacked the Democratic party and they want a government controlled, welfare, craddle to the grave, nanny-esque police state where the "common folk" would not be burdened with such heavy issues as deciding things, and how to live their respective lives, for themselves. Of course getting people to go along with this nanny state is accomplished through class warfare and the notion that only Democrats can make things "fair" for everyone. Alexis de Tocqueville once wrote (I'm not sure if he originated this quote or derived it from someone else), [paraphrasing] Democracy dies when people realize they can vote themselves benefits from the public coffers. And that is exactly what we see happening in America today as more and more people expect that government takes care of, and responsibility for, their overall and day to day lives and well-being through funding and sustaining of social welfare programs. To Democrats, anyone who disagrees and thinks that people should work and earn their way through life are labeled as "greedy," or "the rich" trying to avoid paying their "fair" share.

The ultra-conservatives have taken over the Republican party and they want a police state where, in the name of national security, the government has the absolute right to surveil, phone tap and/or jail anyone who they perceive to be a terrorist and for corporations to have more rights and freedom than people. Of course being true Republicans they'd hire, and ghastly over pay, private firms or contractors to handle the day to day work. And they don't need any proof for such an accusation--the accusation in and of itself is "proof" enough. Even as an American citizen, if you are suspected of being a terrorist you can be arrested and your right to habeus corpus is stripped away. You can be held without any proof or trail for as long as the government sees fit. By labeling more and more people "terrorists" it is simply a natural conclusion to think that anyone who disagrees or dissents is a "threat" to national security. Bejamin Franklin once said that, [paraphrasing] Those who would give up a measure of liberty for security will have neither.

In summary, both parties desire the same end: A police state controlled exclusively by one party and currently the "fight" is to determine which party ends up as the rulers. The only difference is the path they are taking to get there. Look throughout history and see that every time a dictator or party of "elites" has brutally ruled a society or people they start first by demonizing a small group or minority. Then they slowly begin to include more people into the "enemies" list until only those who support the party 100% without question are left. Most recently that was how both the Nazi's in Germany and the Communists in Russia came to absolute power. This is a playbook that both the Democratic and Republican parties are running to the letter.
