They clearly do not have a monopoly, though. This goes back many, many decades with the uniparty. In fact, the national debt started its parabolic rise with Reagan - Bush and continues its uncontrolled rise to this day.
As the libs would say -- "not sustainable."
This will not end well!
You are correct. Both parties created the mess we’re in.
The Democrats are a little more open about their agenda and objectives than the Republicans who, for the most part, are nothing but enablers and appeasers who have no principles and stand for nothing. They pretend to be against spending and the expansion of government but in reality are quite happy to go along with it.
