If the rich elite buy politics what is the point of having political parties?

The Republicans are fundamentally corrupt and they have sided with the corporations, the Christians, the nationalists and the racists out of principle or a desire to get elected. The Democrats, by contrast, have been bought since these things are not part of their creed but have become so.
