Equally wild is when "fiscal conservatives" complain about spending, it's only on social programs they disagree with.
Fraud and/or waste should be a subject of concern regardless of the program that experiences it.

If you notice, whenever dems have launched a plan in the past 30-40 years they always say how it's almost always going to be "deficit neutral" or help because they actually don't want to increase spending (or help people all that much, is my take).
Both sides have and will continue to green light defense spending and other "important issues" so deficit goes up anyways.
Being that social programs are only promoted by dems, and are actively attacked by republicans, I find that statement odd. Yes, the DNC is very much owned by its corporate masters, but there is a distinct difference between the two parties.
The trope of "both sides are the same" is worn out.
Disclaimer: I'm not a member of either party and believe that political parties and partisan politics are bad for the country.
To quote Admiral Ackbar: "It's a trap!"
We need more focus on policy and outcomes, rather than performative politics on who loves the flag more.
