I have come to believe that Democrats are paid to lose by their donors.

Its about absorbing progressive momentum then dispersing it so the rich won't get taxed and/or have to pay fair wages.

Occupy Wall St. would have been bad for rich people if that movement was associated with a competent political party, so Dems took to it to do nothing.
