The false argument was presented by you, pal. Trying to make the case that Congress and the President have no control over the deficit is utterly ridiculous. You throw out red herrings because you can't defend the doubling of the debt under Obama, then claim I'm trying to change the subject. You have nothing and are not worth the time it takes to type this message. Go pound sand, snowflake.Again you completely avoid addressing my question and try to change he the subject. And you're calling me an idiot?? Haha, you either have no understanding of a nations economics or you are being consciously dishonest by presenting false arguments. Either way, the faults in your bullshit statements have been pointed out, AGAIN, so you can retire to your cave and save the rest of us from wasting our time listening to your blubber.You miss the simple point that you're supposed to have enough money to cover your spending requests. If you don't, then you should reduce spending. No one ever said you have to eliminate Medicare of SS, idiot, but when we don't have enough to cover them, cuts in OTHER areas are necessary in order to avoid a debt crisis. But Democrats won't do that because then they couldn't buy votes with borrowed money if they did. For example, Obama drastically increased welfare and food stamps and removed requirements for able bodied recipients to work (which is one reason we got a balanced budget under Newt Gingrich's speakership). That was solely Obama's doing and there are many more examples, all of which I'm sure you would ignore. It's no coincidence that the annual deficit never dropped below a trillion dollars for the first 4 years of Obama's presidency.I knew you couldn't answer. Are you implying that foreign investments in treasury bonds are the presidents fault? How about mandated spending for Medicare and social security? Are those all Obamas fault too?Red herring time, I see. Domestic investments in gov. bonds is like one drop of rain in a flood compared to foreign debt. But do keep trying to put lipstick on that pig.Let me ask a simple question and I'd appreciate a simple answer. If last year I decided to invest 1 million dollars in treasury bonds for my retirement fund, does Obama get faulted for adding that million dollars to the national debt?$10 trillion when he came in, $20 trillion when he left (give or take a trillion). Don't be in denial, your "hope and change" savior sold you out.
