"Seems ironic that most social liberals don't want to pay the price of conservative economics."

If you judge "conservative economics" by it's DEEDS, it seems to be tax cuts, borrowing and debt, with no reduction in discretionary spending. Repugnicans run the entire show, and we're spending more than ever, but not paying for it.

"Tax and spend" makes more fiscal sense than "Borrow and spend". Perhaps Repugnicans WERE more fiscally responsible ONCE, but it must have been in the Eisenhower era. Nowdays. it's just lip service as they spend us into the poorhouse borrowing to make up for their tax cuts.

Given a choice between government pissing away my money to corporations or to my fellow citizens, I'd take the latter. However I'd rather not to piss it away at all.
