If Democrats' monetary base was made up who they imply, they wouldn't have any money. Back in the day, it seemed like business was a column against leftism. When Exxon-mobil was the largest company in the world. In the days when it was Apple, I don't think coincidentally, big business fell in with the media, and the bureaucrats, and the dependent class. My point is I think we're outside the world right now. Every bit of power that clings to relevancy seems set against us. But it's like losing a mutiny on a sinking ship.
Big business has never been against the political Left. They have, at most, been anti-Communist and Pro-Socialist. This is because big business hits an upper limit to their growth that requires government subsidy and regulation to protect them from competition. This is especially important as they get to the Oligarchy stage of hierarchy, which means they can't really exist independent of government power, and become an agent of government power.
However, it is as you say, these are acts of complete desperation. They aren't actually in control. No one is flying the plane and they are in a death spiral.
The danger is that the lion is most dangerous as he is dying and wounded.
What I meant with businesses is favoring Republicans. Ideology is secondary, but there ought to be something to read into which party they buy. The initial hookup is protection from competition, like you say.
One explanation I've floated is that the kind of business that makes the most money in this country changed. Other than money business I mean. And so the party affiliation followed the new geography of money.

I'd say your right regarding the geography of money. The oil industry is typically Republican, though it was Democratic in earlier eras.
