You just answered your own question.
Democrats are FAR, FAR, FAR better than Republicans. We know this because the data shows they are better for our economy. We know this because their voting record shows that they regularly vote in favor of the middle and lower classes. We know this because they never attempted to violently overturn an election or send masked squads into our towns to abduct people off the street.
No 3rd party is viable or will be viable anytime in the near future. It will take YEARS and YEARS for a 3rd party to start winning local/state elections and getting reps in the House and Senate. And that's IF a 3rd party actually starts putting in the work, which none are doing.
So if you want to be smart, and actually help protect our democracy, then you should vote Democrat in national elections and maybe vote 3rd party in local elections to help them gain some traction and see if they can do anything with it.
We know this because the data shows they are ~~better for our economy~~ rich people's money.
FTFY.
They're definitely not good for "our" money, meaning the 99% that works for a living, unless you're of the opinion that outright ignoring food and rent becoming cost-prohibitive is somehow good for "our" money.
Time for you to go back to high school econ. The healthier our economy, the more everyone benefits.
Totally, man.
Trickle-down economics has worked wonders.
