One political party in the United States wants to cut spending by slashing money from programs for the elderly the poor the elderly and under-fed children. A past vice president for this party once said " deficits don't matter." So to prove this point this party took a budget surplus and turned it into a 5.4 trillion dollar deficit. Under this parties management greed became a virtue and the monied interests went wild with bogus scams to bilk Americans. After the horrible attack of 911 this party engaged in two un-funded wars. The first attack was justified but the second life costing financially draining hoax was predicated on phony yellow cakes and peek-a-boo non-existent threats. The president of this party, instead of raising taxes to pay for their wars,cut taxes and said patriotic Americans should go shopping. Back when this political party had credible leaders, one of their presidents predicted the take over of America by the military industrial complex. Rather than forging swords into plows we have been deluded into doing the opposite. Think of the hundreds of billions of dollars that could have made America stronger it's children safer and smarter, with jobs for all, that were wasted on military hardware. We have become slaves to the god of war. Now this party wants to make the least able in this country suffer to continue to feed the bloated demon it created.
