Couldn't agree more. Neither party is concerned about this massive pile of debt, they only squabble over the pile of cash that comes into D.C. each year and who gets to spend it. Leaving them to simply run up more debt.

One party never cares about the debt. One party only cares about the debt when the other party is in charge.

Has it added up to Obama's 9 trillion yet?

The federal deficit for 2017 was $666 billion. It was $80 billion more than the previous year and the highest in the last four years. With the economy in good shape, why did we increase the deficit? Dumb!

Just wait until you see the final numbers for 2018 with the tax reductions and the increased military spending.

We are on a bad path.

Actually, Ds never caring about the debt is a misconception. The Presidents with the 4 highest deficits were Obama, George W. Bush, George H.W. Bush and Ronald Reagan. The last president to actually balance the budget was Clinton. Isn't he a Democrat?

They're all the same. They just pander to different bases.

Cheney told us they don't matter. They only matter to Republicans when there is a Democrat in the house, I'm sure that would be debatable to the GOPers on here but who cares, their hypocrisy glasses don't work.

It’s true
It's a white flag from Dave when he moves on to that tactic.

I mean it should be pretty easy to admit that the GOP is just an anti-liberal party at this point. They don't care about anything but the lulz. Guess it's just hard from Ave-Day to admit.

Dead on. They're all about erasing Obama's legacy and replacing it with another Obama legacy.

Sad thing is....there are many aspects of the GOP platform I agree with, and want to see Dems move more towards implementing. One of which is fiscal responsibility. It used to be free trade. Now it seems that the GOP is moving away from both.

We’ve been on an unsustainable path for 16 years. At this point, let’s just enjoy the last few good years we have left. I guess the libs are going to now be building their bunkers?

That was the most fiscally responsible government we've had during my adult life. The economic boom certainly helped. A Democratic president with a Republican congress drove the deficit down. The president was skewered as a traitor by many in his own party for making deficit reduction a priority.

Clinton was bashed by many Dems. But it was his devotion to free trade that helped changed the attitude of many within the party. Frankly, I’m surprised that running without a deficit isn’t more sought after by Dems, due to his economic successes in office.
