It would not be all that bad if it was a zero gain, but both parties want to expand "their" favourite parts of the government more than cutting the parts they don't like.

End result from both parties -- increased size and cost of government.

The political spectrum in the US is not accurately depicted as a straight line (left, center, right) but more a mobius strip.

And here I thought it looked more like a trapezoidal parallelogram trying to solve its own hypotonuse.
