Conservative = good, liberal = bad? well, du-uh.

Not really, conservative and liberal are irrelevant except when trying to classify and separate people.

My concern for spending is not new or limited to healthcare. Deficit spending is not new and not necessarily the end of the world. What concerns me though is the fact we don't seem to care about our ability to service our debt. We're talking degrees of scale here. The family that wakes up to realize they earn $4,000 per month but payout $3,500 to debt before even eating is well and truly screwed. Our government and we need to understand that it works like that at the national level too.

If it seems I'm only concerned with the cost of healthcare, I'm not, it's just that is the latest greatest program we want to create that will cost trillions more than we have.
