Same Kind of shit my mom said, before blaming Democrats for their spending. Now Dems are not wholly innocent, but for the last like 80 years, it’s been the GoP that’s been increasing the national debt, and it’s not because they’re expanding spending on safety nets and education
Republicans are like the person who spends too much money on Cheap Chinese crap that they don’t need because it feels like they are getting a bunch of material stuff but it never lasts and they need to constantly buy more to replace it.
Democrats seem more like the people who spend a bunch of money on fewer but quality goods that you can rely on and don’t need to replace as often, because it also improves the quality of your experience and reliability in the future.
Both end up spending the same in the long run but one has a more reliable and higher quality household.
Not in my experience from what I’ve seen. Republicans are more than happy to punch down and send money up to the top. While that may have been like half the GOP reps 40 years ago, now it’s almost all of them. They spend tons of money on handouts to corporations and the wealthy.
While there’s no shortage of Dems doing the same, they have more often done good things for the population.
Example, Clinton balanced the budget and handed a surplus to Bush part II. Bush II took that, and cut taxes for big corporations and the wealthy, and increased spending the the military of course, but also in things to help out the big corporations. Cut things like education and safety nets. Handouts for the wealthy but not those that need it to live.
Also, both don’t end up spending the same, the GOP has always spent more (at least since the 60s). The national debt nearly doubled every time a Republican was president, and either stagnates or is reduced when a Democrat is president. We have the data on that.
