The Democrats are willing to do anything, even destroy our national defense, rather than cut wasteful spending on unnecessary entitlement programs.  There are many other ways to cut back spending on things not necessary but the current administration wants to continue to waste our money on free programs for all!  Unfortunately most voters do not realize nothing is free!  We pay for things with higher taxes, a less secure country, a weaker military, fewer private sector jobs because of costly regulations  and much more.   The democrats like it this way because the more voters are dependent on entitlements the greater number that will continue to vote for the democrats and more "free"programs!
