Neither side say shit about it as both keep getting reelected, which is basically the voters giving them their approval to keep on doing it. Why would they change when they keep getting put back into office.
Kinda wonder if this isn't why we have two morons running. Nobody wants to take over the helm of the Titanic as the bow is already under water.
What is truly amazing is how fast we got here.
Clinton/Gingrich almost had us to no debt.
Bush, may he rot in hell, just could not keep his ass from getting us into war.
Everyone knew the Boomers were going to hit.
Bad policy and we get 2008. The country has recovered but in eight years Obama really started to take us there.
Trump did zilch to help...but he was not as bad as Biden who is building something alright....the stairway to 40).
And then there is the problem of actually cutting spending. Last month the USDA announced that NASS would be be conducting their annual County Estimates for Row Crops and Small Grains this year due to budget constraints as the budget for NASS was cut. This caused a huge uproar in the Ag community with lobbing groups calling members of Congress and now Congress is talking about forcing NASS to do these surveys along with the extra funding to do them.
I want nothing but little old ladies, raised on farms, in the senate and house. People who will say "Gee, that's to bad....nowe get out of here).
Everyone says they want spending cuts, but nobody is willing for their little piece of the pie to be cut. Thus we are now spending more to service our debt than we do on national defense.
It's effing unbelievable.
Nobody is talking about it.
