Well if we could be running today's Democrats against Eisenhower's Republicans, I suspect I would probably vote Republican. Unfortunately, we're not. |
No real blame game about it. Just see no way to get back to the "Good old days." politically.
People seem hellbent on wasteful spending regardless.
Even a depression won't stop them since constant spending is what's supposed to get you out of a depression.
We seem somewhat caught in a loop of crazy spending.
I mean, i'd argue that the Neocons took power... probably with Reagan starting mostly.
I mean Reagan promised a lot of cuts... one of his and George Bush's big campaign planks was "I will eliminate the useless department of education."
It's still here though... why? It's a great place to put political lackies.
