I celebrate our common ground (yours and mine, individually) that deficit spending is bad.
The two major parties obviously also have common ground: paying lip service to the issue of deficit spending when the other party is in charge.
When every leading Dem candidate would spend more than what we are spending now (just on different things), it seems hypocritical to hear a person who will vote for one of them criticizing the Right for deficit spending. But, if your point is that the Right pays lip service to deficit spending but violates their own principles, then I accept your point...and then add, "So does the Left."
I certainly wish our parties would cut our spending. But, they won't. Thus...Fasten your seatbelt!
