I wouldn’t mind the “Tax and Spend” label on Democrats, if only the Democrats were capable of framing the apparent policy of Republicans:
They are the “Dine and Dash” party.
They come into office, most recently with a budget surplus. They cut taxes for those most able to pay, strip away regulations, and spend ridiculously. They finally get the boot, leaving huge debts. Then they castigate Democrats for proposing methods of cleaning up the mess, and complain that they failed before programs are even expected to show results.
So the next time you hear “Tax and Spend”, reply with, “As opposed to Dine and Dash?”
