No one gets re/elected by cutting federal spending. Cutting Medicare/caid spending, gutting defense, firing federal workers, defunding grants, etc. is completely contrary to politics so it's going to happen only with a gun to the head of Congress and the White House.
There may be a few who want a collapse, but I think the majority are just fricking dumb and/or selfish.

Certainly some elected Congress people are in tune with the globalists elite plans to destabilize America, but most are just playing the DC game of greed and power. That's no excuse, they actually represent and push what's best for "we the people", if they get their heads outta their asses it's all so easy to see.

It's like parenting but if your kids could vote you out of the house if you made them eat vegetables and put down their phones.
One can debate why all day long but the American electorate is what is destroying America. Politicians are only a reflection of the problem.

Close borders, deport illlegals and stop sending billions overseas would go a long way to saving a bunch of money and not harm a single American citizen

The current "old" government "collapses", "new" government that will be functionally the same takes over, national debt is erased because it was taken out by the now defunct "old" government and the new one declines to acknowledge it, "risk of investment" being what it is and everything.

The people who want a collapse are using their bought and paid for dumb and selfish elected swamp rats.
