You know, I used to blame the Democrat Congress for the rampant spending in the Eighties. Since the 1994 elections, I've been waiting for any sign that the Republicans aren't the same big spenders.
Let's face it; they all just give "us" what we want from Uncle Sugar: income redistribution. With DemocRATS, it's tax-and-spend-and-spend. With Republicans, maybe it's spend-and-spend-and-tax.
