Burg, how's that kool aid taste? Politicians from EITHER party are self serving blood suckers that promise the world and deliver a bill for something you'll never get. Blaming a single branch of government is senseless too since no spending gets done without Congress and few bills survive a Presidential veto.

The last administration spent like they were democrats and the current one seems destined to outspend it, the final bill amounting to more than we can "tax those mean old rich folks" for. In general, a government solution is an ineffective, outdated, too heavily compromised, and watered done solution that works for few but costs ten times as much as it should regardless of who is "officially" in charge at the time.
