In 6 years Obama has spent 400% more revenue ($6.2T) then Bush did in 8 years!

[Siete]

by definition REVENUE is income ...if Obama increased revenue spending 400%, he had to increase income 400%.

In the interim he lowered the deficit $1 trillion dollars.

After the Bush tax cuts started in 2001, quickly ending the 2001 recession

No, the Democratic Party demanding that Bush rebate $300 to each single filer and $600 to each joint filer to get their votes for his tax cuts is what ended the Bush 2001 recession.

That's all it takes to end a recession?
Why didn't Obama do the same?
$60 billion instead of his $900 billion monstrosity?

Bush's 2007 Depression was much worse than Bush's 2001 recession. But if rebates would have been included in the stimulus, the recovery would have been faster.

Besides the tragic human loss of that day, the economic loss cannot even be estimated. Some estimate that there was over $60 billion in insurance losses alone. Airlines didn't fly for 3 days!
Approximately 18,000 small businesses were either displaced or destroyed in Lower Manhattan after the Twin Towers fell. There was a buildup in homeland security on all levels. 9/11 caused a catastrophic financial loss for the U.S.

When added together, that's the national debt.

NO the NATIONAL DEBT is MORE then the sum total of deficits...
Read from the people that do the work regarding tracking the "national debt"!!!

What is the difference between the debt and the deficit?
The deficit is the fiscal year difference between what the United States Government (Government) takes in from taxes and other revenues, called receipts, and the amount of money the Government spends, called outlays. The items included in the deficit are considered either on-budget or off-budget.

You can think of the total debt as accumulated deficits plus accumulated off-budget surpluses. The on-budget deficits require the U.S. Treasury to borrow money to raise cash needed to keep the Government operating. We borrow the money by selling securities like Treasury bills, notes, bonds and savings bonds to the public.

The Treasury securities issued to the public and to the Government Trust Funds (Intragovernmental Holdings) then become part of the total debt. For information about the deficit, visit the financial management web site to view the Monthly Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the United States Government (MTS).

Wasn't talking about National DEBT! Idiot!
This was discussing the expenditures over revenue.

That's called a budget deficit.
When added together, that's the national debt.

NO the NATIONAL DEBT is MORE then the sum total of deficits...
Read from the people that do the work regarding tracking the "national debt"!!!

What is the difference between the debt and the deficit?
The deficit is the fiscal year difference between what the United States Government (Government) takes in from taxes and other revenues, called receipts, and the amount of money the Government spends, called outlays. The items included in the deficit are considered either on-budget or off-budget.

You can think of the total debt as accumulated deficits plus accumulated off-budget surpluses. The on-budget deficits require the U.S. Treasury to borrow money to raise cash needed to keep the Government operating. We borrow the money by selling securities like Treasury bills, notes, bonds and savings bonds to the public.

The Treasury securities issued to the public and to the Government Trust Funds (Intragovernmental Holdings) then become part of the total debt. For information about the deficit, visit the financial management web site to view the Monthly Treasury Statement of Receipts and Outlays of the United States Government (MTS).

NO the NATIONAL DEBT is MORE then the sum total of deficits...

Well, if you're going to bring in the Trust Funds, it's actually less.

Which still doesn't help your bad numbers or your worse math.

After the Bush tax cuts started in 2001, quickly ending the 2001 recession

No, the Democratic Party demanding that Bush rebate $300 to each single filer and $600 to each joint filer to get their votes for his tax cuts is what ended the Bush 2001 recession.

That's all it takes to end a recession?
Why didn't Obama do the same?
$60 billion instead of his $900 billion monstrosity?

Bush's 2007 Depression was much worse than Bush's 2001 recession. But if rebates would have been included in the stimulus, the recovery would have been faster.

$600 bucks a person? $1000?

Since the Bush Depression killed DEMAND at least $600 would be in order, more would be even better.
