    That’s what’s baffling, social services are fiscally conservative, taxing the richest in order to make sure the poorest have better living conditions is fiscally conservative, not spending public funds on companies worth billions is fiscally conservative… Fiscal conservatism is supposed to be spending public money wisely, well the most logical way to spend money for a government is by having a monopoly on certain things to make sure they’re provided to the population without the goal of making profit from it!

      The most fiscally responsible stance is to be against corruption. The corruption is the thing that causes money magically disappear.

      There are bad apples in Democratic party (Kevin de Leon from LA for example. I hope he never gets beyond current position) and we should fight hard to kick them out, but right now GQP is in its own league in terms of corruption.

        Democrats usually eschew their obvious corruption and even some perceived slights. Republicans always circle their wagons and protect their own.

        Yeah it’s become the party of lies and grifts. Electing actual conspiracy theorists and complete morons because they repeat lies that fox “news” tells everyone. Supporting a habitual lying con man for president who hocks crappy overpriced shoes, bibles and NFTs for 1000% their actual cost.
