Ya well, he is a few years older and maybe wiser since he joined the forum.

Both parties are thoroughly involved with and responsible for all those points I mentioned, aside from the social programs.

It's not only the poor that expect handouts.

The image I posted above is very applicable to the way Congress is run now. Democrats bribe the poor with broader social programs, Republicans bribe the wealthy with complex tax laws and loopholes. Both accomplish their goals at the expense of the middle class.
