Democrats are more about a pyramid shape where you have the rich ruling class, a small middle class and a large group of poor people who depend on the government.

Tell me you don't understand anything about the left without telling me.

There are certainly oligarch owned democrats who are in favor of a rich ruling class (with that said, republicans are far worse about this).

And then there are the progressives, the actual leftists that begrudgingly vote democrat, and want to see an end to the ruling class and dependence on the state.
