Is more spending and adding to our national debt a conservative or liberal policy?

And which philosophy do you subscribe to:

1. More spending/increasing the national debt
2. Less spending/decreasing the national debt

There was a time when this wasn't in question, but I feel we need to get back to first principles and use those to define commonly-used terms (like "Liberal" and "Conservative").

This is the answer. They don't care. It won't have any effect on them because they exempt themselves from everything and already have money.

This is a discussion about principles and political philosophy. I would expect that as your response (as its the limit of your discourse)

I'd prefer this based on where our economy is currently and our inflated government levels.
Start shaving off alphabet agencies and pushing more things down to the state.

This is a very Ronald Reagan, Joe Biden, Donald Trump position.

That's not an answer. We aren't talking about people. We are talking about principles.

So ad homs, tweets about something someone said once, past pols, etc. are not relevant to this discussion.

And I have told him that, specifically on this issue.

But, be that as it may, it has no place ITT. We know his position (and his lack of principles) and it's noted for the record. No need to litigate it.

This is the question du jour.
