You want my answer? Nothing! Because there is virtually no difference between Democrats and Republicans, conservatives or progressive liberals, the shrillest voices from both the left and the right.

In my opinion you are 100% wrong and I find it difficult to comprehend how anyone could come to that conclusion. Personally I don't like any politicians in any party but you are right in that
congress does control the purse strings.
So lets not forget...
Democrats controlled BOTH houses from 1955 until 1980 (26 years).
From 1981 until 1987 the Republicans controlled the Senate and the Democrats the House.
Democrats recaptured both houses in 87 and held them until 95 when the Republicans took both houses and held them until 2005.
The Democrats have been in control of congress for the last 4 years adding more debt in only the last two years than any other time in history.
