"right wing, left wing, they are both part of the same bird"
The whole system is screwed. Both parties of a 2 party "democratic" republic are corrupt and do not have the interests of the people really in mind when they 'work'. The solution you speak of would be the end of capitalism, heh.
Borrowing, oh yes, with a national debt of what is it now....13 trillion? China and I think nations of the mid-east gave us this money? This national debt is definitely a bi-partisan project. So, companies borrow from the govt and the govt borrow from other governments. And one computer glitch or action of a hacker can make 3 billion simply disappear from the markets (France).
I noticed a new type of logic this year in campaigning, that cutting govt spending and this the tax load of the citizens, will save jobs. Tell that to all the teachers, other employees of schools, firemen, police officers, etc who LOSE THEIR JOBS when govt spending is cut. It is so very oxyMORONic.
This similar type of political junk bothered me on election day, but honestly (and I forgot to keep this outlook), the worse it gets the sooner, the quicker we get to the end and real change can happen (like, the breakdown of an entire country's messed up system). I really hope it does not go to fascism, however. But if/when it does, I'll be headed to Canada to homestead on some nice temperate land cleared of ice and snow from global warming.

In the meantime, it is business as usual.
