The nation's finances are controlled almost exclusively by the house of representatives. A governing body solidly in the hands of the GOP for the past six years and 18 of the past 22 years.
Characterizing GOP governance as "left wing" is incredibly perverse.
The country is swimming in debt yet alot of people,mostly Republicans, dont seem to mind that a billionaire like Trump pays almost no taxes. Go figure!!!

I'll admit that I care more about the trillions we waste on the useless wars.

I'll admit I care more about the inefficiency of most government agencies that people who have learned how to play the IRS game, whether no income but refund, or wealthy with loopholes.
But, again, just raising taxes solves loopholes...

They are progressive. Cut from the same cloth. Just have an R by their name. They love big government and they want to spend our money. Their overspending is good while the dems overspending is bad. That is the perverse thing about it.
Not really. Tea Partiers control almost nothing in congress. And the Left revels in lecturing everyone about how the Tea Partiers are a tiny, fringe element.
When there is a long thread already in place I generally skip it or make sure I read it all before replying so that I'm not making people constantly repeat themselves.
Can't even point me to page number eh? Long threads usually encompass multiple topics.
Not left wing or right wing but futures drove the pound back to its low mark and treasury bonds had a huge sell off overseas this morning. Being tied to mortgage rates, well, let's see what happens.
No knee jerk reaction and people shouldn't abandon the bond market but that is the crux of the whole money supply argument... When/if bonds start a long term yield decline (as has happened as of late), those of us who fear hyperinflation and devalued dollars won't look like chicken littles
