Pretending one party isn't much more behind that kind of economy than the other is disingenuous as well. Dems at least try to put in benefits to support workers who aren't paid a lot or in some cases have even tried to raise wages (which by itself is only a half step). Republicans are against benefits and against supporting wages.
So you can say one is misguided because they're trying to support both corporate and individual interests. But ignoring that half of the equation is not helpful.
You can't just say both are equally bad as that simply justifies not voting or equating voting for either is bad. Yes, both parties are not "good" but one would be much easier to "fix" than the other.
