Of course it is. Why? Because both parties operate at the behest of the capital-owning class. The only bills that pass are performative, extend police power domestically (eg [1]) or extend military power internationally (which typically means a massive giveaway to the military-industrial complex anyway).

Nothing curtails corporate power. It's also why the focus of politics is on being divisive on social issues. This is to distract the voters and prevent class solidarity of the working class.
