That is the solution by BOTH parties. I just think it's more responsible to tax those that spend it, while Republicans are gung ho to tax future generations.
You should note that deficit spending actually promotes increased spending. It creates the illusion that we can have more government services without really paying for them.
If we curbed deficits (which are okay for capital improvements and emergencies), people would see the real cost of government, and that would create political pressure to contain spending. Without that pressure, politicians of both parties see personal reward for spending with no pressure to cut back.
I see no point in cultivating the overgrown govt anymore.
