They seem to care more about money and saving money and letting insurance companies run amok over folks that can't afford health care.
At least Bernie Sanders is there to point out that even people on the Left (including me) are unsatisfied/unhappy with the bailouts.
I'm not sure what constitutes "responsible" spending, since there are so many ways you can slice that pie. I value compassion and empathy over saving a people a few pennies. When people complain about the social services budget in this country, they overlook the size and scope of the defense budget, which dwarves the social services in this country.
