"everyone's to blame" is a strange conclusion given that only one party is in control of the White House and Congress
I would never suggest that tax cuts rather than spending increases (or failures to make offsetting spending cuts) is the sole reason for deficits. 'Cause that would be silly.
If you quit your job without cutting your expenses, which is to blame for the resulting cash shortfall? The lack of income or the failure to cut costs?
If, on the other hand, you quit your job and then buy a Ferrari on credit, well, welcome to the GOP.
