Republicans love to quote John Adams about how “Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other”.

And then spend decades pimpin' and simpin' and cuckin' for constitutional rights for corporations, which are neither moral nor religious nor people.

Republicans like to genuflect to Adam Smith as well, yet their idea of "free trade" always ends up being "this big corporation gets this leg up from us--Big Government--and screw the little guy."

The only difference between the Democrats and Republicans is the nature of their sacred cows. Both parties happily sacrifice the well being of the ordinary voter in order ensure that the greatest amount of power and wealth is transferred from the people to the business interests.

There's a meme I've seen lately that goes something like:

Republicans think all of the wealth should be owned and controlled by 10 men.

Democrats think it should be 15. And half of them should be women. And there should be at least one African-American and one transgender person among them.
