Or.... We correctly tax the rich, corporations, create a single payer medical system, and stop letting the Republicans blow massive deficits without limits and then turn around and point the finger at Democrats when they are not in power.

Most of our current debt is from:

Iraq war (Republican)
Tax Cuts (Republican)
Afghanistan war (Republican)
More Tax Cuts (Republican)
Covid relief with no over site (Republican)

If we stop the grift of the Right suddenly I bet we could have afforded to take care of every person born, and immigrating to the USA.
