If the problem is over spending, then why is there not enough demand in the economy?

What they are really saying is people with money should decided with race to the bottom where to spend. Not a structure for the people elected by the people.

The whole concept is who should decide, or control, people with money from a system, or people elected by people where one vote per person is the rule, not votes based on how much money a person has. I think both could have some arguments for social spending, but money should not be the only method of deciding what social policies are set.

It is money versus society ^ versus V in that argument.
