There is no strictparty discipline(黨紀). One does not have to apply or go through necessary formalities tobecome a member of either party. But there are some differences between them. TheDemocrats traditionally favour government intervention (主張政府干涉經濟)while theRepublicans stress the role of the market (市場作用)more. On social issue the Democratssupport a strong social security system (社會安全保障體制) while the Republicans oppose largegovernmental social security programs. In spite of these differenes, the two parties bothbelieve in individualism, defend capitalism and uphold private ownership of means ofproduction(堅持生產資料私有制) .

　　兩個主要政黨今天并沒有實質區別。他們是利益集團的聯合。沒有嚴格的黨紀。要想成為某黨成員，不需要申請或辦理必要的手續。但他們有所不同。民主黨主張政府干涉，共和黨則強調市場作用。在社會問題上，民主黨支持建立強大的社會保障體系，而共和黨反對大規模的政府社會保障計劃。盡管存在這些區別，兩黨都信仰個人主義，保護資本主義制度，維護生產資料私有制。
