There is a long history that says that Washington spends no matter who's in power. If it makes you feel better to bash one party over another, feel free. History proves that is a foolish belief.

the republican wars started by a republican and continued by the democrat cost a fortune.
the good thing about the wars is they end.
The bad thing about democrats and their social spending is it not only continues but increases.
Do you know what the tax rates were when America was great? How will we get there again if Trump doesn't go back to that? Are you a Trump fan?
your labor rates are higher too. why pay an american worker $20 when you can pay a vietnamese worker 25 cents?
your regulation is higher too. why go to america and have to follow these rules designed to stop pollution, when u can go to china and dump your waste in the local river?
regarding capitalism systematically concentrating money, see thomas piketty capital in the 21st century. it was a big deal when it came out last year.

I'd be curious to hear you justify Montreal's plan to dump 2 billion gallons of raw sewage in to the St. Lawrence River.

Ethanol subsidies, Corporate farm subsidies, oil subsidies, etc...
There is the real welfare and I don't see those ending. If these businesses can't make it on their own then just maybe they shouldn't be in existence.

Yeah, those also. ANY business should not receive government subsidies to remain in existence.
