a huge reason republicans dont take on entitlement spending is because the public demands everything from the government. solve all lifes problems, & dont tax me too much. only the tea party really wants to kill the entitlement dragon.

I'm a republican but I don't always agree with their policies. I think they should come up with a better alternative to Obamacare, rather than just say "no no no no". But that's the way the game is played. The Democrats are just as guilty. However, if you really want to argue public sector vs. private sector in terms of overall destruction, I'll be more than happy to put up a case for the government destroying our economy far more than the private sector ever could.
