Except until Obama continued with the bailout plan hatched under the Goldman Sachs ..er...Bush administration it was the Republicans who expanded entitlement spending dramtiacally and overall spending at the fastest pace since WWII.
They're all in on it.
They're all liberals. Democrat liberals want the money spent on domestic nation-building and Republicans want it spent on global policing and building other nations (into mature investment markets).
Either outlet is inherently wasteful.
