> Both sides oppose a balanced budget.

A balanced budget is a popular idea in theory, but very few people actually want to see it happen once they find out what their own cost will be. The politicians are going to do whatever it takes to mollify voters and keep their jobs.

When Republicans blow up budget way more then anyone before, it is both sides.

When Democrats leave surplus or just lower speed at which debt goes up ... debt is still their fault.

I'm the past, Congress was able to prevent impoundments. Given the cult like nature of the current majority, the current situation is not "both sides".

This seems a bit too “both sides” for my taste, given Trump being a disaster for America.
