Gist of the article: Mega-donors and general big business interests have disliked the Tea Party since the government shutdown and especially since the current immigration debate. The right of the Republican party is primarily driven by the petty bourgeoisie--that is, middle management and small business owners--while big corporations and financial institutions are more supportive of both parties' establishments. The 2016 presidential primaries will be a showdown between these two class interests within the Republican Party

It's ridiculous that the banks totally own both parties.

I honestly would trust Granma more than I would trust anything from Jacobin magazine...

What do you mean trust? It's analysis. You agree with it or you don't. It's not a secret whispered in your ear.
