The Republican party has transformed into big government borrow and spend - The Democratic party once might have been big government tax and spend - now they are just big government spend.... and are more worried about getting elected than fighting for tax increases to the people and corporations who can most easily afford it.
Any person who seriously puts "country first" and themselves second would demand that spending be cut in a big way and tax rev increased.
