No, it isn't.
It's the fact that the two shitty right-wing parties are essentially all powerful that we have two shitty right-wing parties.
Your vote is wasted regardless if you're a wage worker.
while this is true, most western nations have some level of FPP, and while they usually have two major parties, Like Conservative-Progressives and Labour in Canada, they still have more than two parties represented in the legislative body. I'm unaware of the last time someone was elected to congress who ran as a party other than R/D (no independents don't count).
