Just ask a liberal how much spending is enough?
Ask one just when would they consider stopping the spending of money we don't have?
Ask one what their suggestion will be when all the money we currently use for discretionary spending will be needed to service the debt? (because that's clearly the current trajectory)
They refuse to answer.
They obviously LIKE discretionary spending. But that won't be able to continue ad nauseum as they clearly want, once we hit a point when all the money that's not used for required spending (social security, defense, etc.) will have to be used to service the debt. Once we're there, nothing will be left for their precious giveaway pork programs.
And don't let them get away with saying we'll increase "revenue" by taxing the rich and making them pay their "fair share". Everyone is all for that until they get their tax bill and realize that in order to keep spending money we don't have, their middle class asses are now considered rich by the tax and spend politicians.
btw, you can ask a conservative the same question, and they'll act like they're in favor of less spending, but they keep on voting for more tax and spend politicians from the republican party that love to spend as much as the liberals do.
