Does the United States have a spending problem? Obviously, but I really wanted to talk about how the cost of living crisis is presenting itself in your community. That relates to this article because you can’t squeeze blood from a stone. If all of you have no disposable income, no savings, and a job market that can’t support your current cost of living… What happens if you lose your job? Do you default on loan obligations along with America because we are stretched to the edge. Should we vote in members of congress to pass more tax breaks for private jets?Are mods whack? Let me know in the comments.
Kind of. The US won’t collapse due to its debt, but the dollar will be devalued as money is being printed to pay it back.
This is why Democrats love deficit spending. They get to obscure the true cost of social welfare programs and ensure that workers foot the bill instead of the people making everything so expensive.
Democrats love deficit spending, which is why Republicans historically are the ones that increase the deficit more.
Democrats are the lesser evil.
That doesn’t make them good.
Not sure what bearing that has on my statement.
Sure, let me clarify.
You said “democrats love deficit spending,” and then proceeded to go on about how Republicans have historically raised the deficit more than Democrats. This means your argument is (even if you’re afraid to admit it) that Republicans are worse than the Democrats for the deficit. And I agree with you! They are worse!
It’s so easy to criticize Republicans, but it’s hard to criticize Democrats and they take advantage of it as much as they can.
Democrats use deficit spending as a shield to the true cost of social welfare programs. We need these programs, otherwise people would recognize how much they’re being fucked and revolt against the system taking them for a ride. Democrats can’t have this, so they nominate wet noodles like Clinton and Biden over Sanders.
It’s disgusting, despicable, and needs to fucking end. It won’t end until people stop being proudly stupid.
Daddy Trump’s boot must be so tasty.
Yeah, everyone who holds Democrats accountable must be a Republican.
The last I checked its the Republicans who run the debt up all the time.

Have a look at the '80s and '90s.
Republicans are worse, and Democrats use them as an excuse not to do better.
Bullshit.
Im by no means a supporter of any American political party but what you are saying is bullshit.
Why?
Lots of things about American political discourse are infuriating, but this is def one of the worst. Republic administrations are so much worse for inflation that it’s almost laughable to see this opinion shared around. Kind of wild how politics is all vibes and memes I guess.
