Obama Budget Would Add Another $9.3 Trillion to the Debt

It is truly amazing. It's like the Democrats don't even care about the national debt. They just want to keep spending and spending more and more money. It's truly shocking. Baffling. Have they learned nothing from Greece, Spain, Italy? How about Weimar Germany?

We used to care -- but then Conservatives told us not to worry.

By the way -- Republicans control spending these days.

President Barack Obama presented a budget to Congress on Tuesday that if enacted would add nearly $10 trillion to the national debt, according to the White House’s projections.

The president’s final budget, widely considered to be dead on arrival due to the Republican-controlled Congress, projects the nation would face a $27.4 trillion debt in 2026.

The budget set the actual total debt for 2015 at $18.1 trillion, projecting an increase of $9.3 trillion. When President Obama took office the debt stood at $10.6 trillion.

The White House budget for fiscal year 2017 includes old and new items of the president’s agenda, including the “Fair Share Tax” on the rich, known as the “Buffett Rule,” and a new tax on oil that would increase taxes by $319 billion over 10 years.

The $4.1 trillion budget also includes raising the minimum wage, “free community college” for two years, and the hiring of 200 new Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives special agents to “reduce gun violence.”

Obama again included his “preschool for all” initiative, which would cost $17.3 billion between 2017 and 2021, and total $66 billion over 10 years.

The budget claims it will “end family homelessness” at a cost of $1.2 billion by 2022.

A move to “standardize the definition for American Indians and Alaska Natives” used in Obamacare would cost $30 million in 2017.

Providing “full coverage of preventive health and tobacco cessation services” in Medicaid would cost $99 million in 2017 and $450 million by 2021.

Another budget item called “Enact RESPECT: Best Job in the World” would cost $50 million in 2017.

The budget also calls for a $12 billion increase in spending to have the government feed kids year-round.

“The Budget invests $12 billion over 10 years to create a permanent Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer for Children program that would provide all families with children eligible for free and reduced-price school meals access to supplemental food benefits during the summer months,” the Office of Management and Budget said.

Obama’s proposal includes a heavy dose of funding related to climate change, including $1.3 billion to “advance the goals of the Global Climate Change Initiative (GCCI).”

“The challenge of climate change will define the contours of this century more dramatically than any other,” Obama wrote in the introduction to his budget.

The funding includes $750 million for the “Green Climate Fund” to fight climate change in third-world countries. Taxpayer funding would also go towards implementing the president’s climate change plan for the United Nations summit in Paris last year.

The budget would also double spending on “clean energy research” from $6.4 billion in 2016 to $12.8 billion in 2021.

Funding for the Department of Transportation’s TIGER grants, many of which go to more bike paths, streetcar projects, and solar-paneled rest stops, would also nearly double.

The budget also increases taxes, with the creation of numerous new fees.

Aside from the “oil fee” of $10.25 per barrel, the budget would also impose a “financial fee” for large American firms.

“The Budget would also impose a new fee on large, highly-leveraged financial institutions,” the administration said. “Specifically, the Budget would raise $111 billion over 10 years by imposing a seven basis point fee on the liabilities of large U.S. financial firms—the roughly 100 firms with assets over $50 billion.”

Obama’s budget also introduces a Food Safety and Inspection Service fee; a biobased labeling fee; Grain Inspection, Packers, and Stockyards Administration fee ($30 million in 2017); an Animal Plant and Health Inspection Service fee ($20 million in 2017); and a Natural Resource and Conservation Service Conservation User fee.

Immigration inspection user fees would also be increased, as would custom user fees, which would raise $1.1 billion over 10 years.

The Environmental Protection Agency would begin collecting a “confidential business information management fee,” and the Federal Communications Commission would impose a spectrum licenses user fee to raise $4.8 billion over 10 years.

Cuts are down in the president’s final budget, from $34.2 billion in 2016 to $28.8 billion.

The budget includes a $10 million cut to grants for the Department of Health and Human Services abstinence-only sex education programs and a $1 million reduction to the Department of Labor’s “Women in Apprenticeship and Nontraditional Occupations” program.

Obama Budget Would Add Another $9.3 Trillion to the Debt

Of course the POS that is Barry and his federal government only know how to tax, spend and print a country to oblivion... With socialism there is no long term.

The two worst things that have happened to our nation's economy during my life time was Reagan/Bush tax cuts for the rich in the 1980's and the Bush tax cuts in the early 2000's. They never cut their spending a goddam dime...just borrowed enough to cover their spending from foreign banks. Hell Fire....you hand me $3-$6 trillion and even I could make everybody happy. Reagan borrowed $3 trillion 1980's dollars...Bush $6 trillion 2010 dollars. What a bunch of goddam losers!!!

As far as Obama.....over two trillion of his spending has gone to pay interest on the debt he assumed. You didn't think those foreign banks were handing us that money interest free did you? Republicans watch Fox News and never have a clue about what's really happening in America.

Here's a spending chart by president:

 

[Stephanie]

Let me ask . What do you think a republican candidate budget would look like ?

Or you think building a wall along Mexico , rounding up all illegals into camps , and expanding the military would fly with a balanced budget ! Lol!!!

when you get your crystal ball you can tell us what a Republican budget will look like. Or you can stay on the topic for a change

 

[Rexx Taylor]

he doesnt care, he like many rats already have their millions,,,,,and to think that the IRS comes after us for 2000.00, but when a rat borrows trillions, cant pay it back,,they dont get on thier case.

So you say. I wish you had been around in the 1930's when Roosevelt's programs were initiated. My family was essentially begging for food. When I was five years old, like more than half of American families my Daddy was being paid $3.80 a week for 48 hours, working Roosevelt's WPA. Most of the people today don't have a goddam clue. I'm 81 years old and I've seen the effects of right wing politics. It Sucks!!! Reagan and Bush tax cuts are the cause of this. Notice that when Bush cut taxes twice in 2001/2003 the upper 1% line which was in adjustment mode immediately headed north again.....OR CAN'T YOU READ?????

The little family I had was begging for food in the 70s and 80s on the res. I have lived in a socialist society... It really sucks.
The career politicians and their federal government are FUBARing this country more by the day.

Ridge Reservation... counties that make up Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota comprised the poorest of our nation's 3,143 counties. The 2000 census found them the third poorest, not because things got better on Pine Ridge, but because things got worse on two other South Dakota Indian Reservations.

Population
While the 2000 census reported a population of 15,521, a study by Colorado State University and accepted by U.S. Housing & Urban Development (HUD) estimated the population at 28,000. Tribal Government records show 38,000 enrolled members living on Pine Ridge Reservation.

Extreme Poverty
The poverty on Pine Ridge can be described in no other terms than third world. It is common to find homes overcrowded, as those with homes take in whoever needs a roof over their heads. Many homes are without running water, and without sewer.

Pine Ridge Statistics

• Unemployment rate of 80-90%
• Per capita income of $4,000
• 8 Times the United States rate of diabetes
• 5 Times the United States rate of cervical cancer
• Twice the rate of heart disease
• 8 Times the United States rate of Tuberculosis
• Alcoholism rate estimated as high as 80%
• 1 in 4 infants born with fetal alcohol syndrome or effects
• Suicide rate more than twice the national rate
• Teen suicide rate 4 times the national rate
• Infant mortality is three times the national rate
• Life expectancy on Pine Ridge is the lowest in the United States and the 2nd lowest in the Western Hemisphere. Only Haiti has a lower rate.

all from the fairy Godfather here:
Obama Budget Would Add Another $9.3 Trillion to the Debt

Of course the POS that is Barry and his federal government only know how to tax, spend and print a country to oblivion... With socialism there is no long term.

The two worst things that have happened to our nation's economy during my life time was Reagan/Bush tax cuts for the rich in the 1980's and the Bush tax cuts in the early 2000's. They never cut their spending a goddam dime...just borrowed enough to cover their spending from foreign banks. Hell Fire....you hand me $3-$6 trillion and even I could make everybody happy. Reagan borrowed $3 trillion 1980's dollars...Bush $6 trillion 2010 dollars. What a bunch of goddam losers!!!

As far as Obama.....over two trillion of his spending has gone to pay interest on the debt he assumed. You didn't think those foreign banks were handing us that money interest free did you? Republicans watch Fox News and never have a clue about what's really happening in America.

Here's a spending chart by president:

There is no excuse for any of them, they all suck.
There is no excuse for socialist entitlement programs, it's wasted money.
None of them are off the hook, including that POS Barry between the stupidity of the stimulus and the absolute extortion that is Obamacare. He has fucked small business with that incredibly intrusive horse shit.

So you say. I wish you had been around in the 1930's when Roosevelt's programs first kicked in. My family was begging for food until Roosevelt's programs first kicked in. When I was five years old my Daddy was being paid $3.80 a week working Roosevelt's WPA. Most of the people today don't have a goddam clue. I'm 81 years old and I've seen the effects of right wing politics. It Sucks!!!

The career politicians and their federal government are FUBARing this country more by the day.

Ridge Reservation... counties that make up Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota comprised the poorest of our nation's 3,143 counties. The 2000 census found them the third poorest, not because things got better on Pine Ridge, but because things got worse on two other South Dakota Indian Reservations.

Population
While the 2000 census reported a population of 15,521, a study by Colorado State University and accepted by U.S. Housing & Urban Development (HUD) estimated the population at 28,000. Tribal Government records show 38,000 enrolled members living on Pine Ridge Reservation.

Extreme Poverty
The poverty on Pine Ridge can be described in no other terms than third world. It is common to find homes overcrowded, as those with homes take in whoever needs a roof over their heads. Many homes are without running water, and without sewer.

Amazing.....you're talking about the very thing the Democrat party is strongest on.....equality for all American citizens. The goddam Republicans work every day on schemes to funnel all the wealth to the top 1%.

All I know is that we've seen Republican administrations quadruple then double again the national debt. It's the goddam tax cuts for the wealthy......that is basically all the modern Republican party stands for. They never seem to be satisfied with any rate which costs them any of their billions. Look at the chart before Reagan then again when Bill Clinton was president. Do you remember that Clinton raised tax rates, balanced the budget and left a surplus? Then along came ol' slow walkin', slow talkin' George....cut taxes for his rich buds twice.....then doubled the national debt.

Debt would reach $27.4 trillion in 10 years


A staff member delivers President Barack Obama's fiscal 2017 federal budget to the House Budget Committee Room. / AP

BY: Elizabeth Harrington
February 9, 2016 3:25 pm


President Barack Obama presented a budget to Congress on Tuesday that if enacted would add nearly $10 trillion to the national debt, according to the White House’s projections.

The president’s final budget, widely considered to be dead on arrival due to the Republican-controlled Congress, projects the nation would face a $27.4 trillion debt in 2026.

The budget set the actual total debt for 2015 at $18.1 trillion, projecting an increase of $9.3 trillion. When President Obama took office the debt stood at $10.6 trillion.

The White House budget for fiscal year 2017 includes old and new items of the president’s agenda, including the “Fair Share Tax” on the rich, known as the “Buffett Rule,” and a new tax on oil that would increase taxes by $319 billion over 10 years.

The $4.1 trillion budget also includes raising the minimum wage, “free community college” for two years, and the hiring of 200 new Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives special agents to “reduce gun violence.”

Obama again included his “preschool for all” initiative, which would cost $17.3 billion between 2017 and 2021, and total $66 billion over 10 years.

The budget claims it will “end family homelessness” at a cost of $1.2 billion by 2022.

A move to “standardize the definition for American Indians and Alaska Natives” used in Obamacare would cost $30 million in 2017.

Providing “full coverage of preventive health and tobacco cessation services” in Medicaid would cost $99 million in 2017 and $450 million by 2021.

Another budget item called “Enact RESPECT: Best Job in the World” would cost $50 million in 2017.

The budget also calls for a $12 billion increase in spending to have the government feed kids year-round.

“The Budget invests $12 billion over 10 years to create a permanent Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer for Children program that would provide all families with children eligible for free and reduced-price school meals access to supplemental food benefits during the summer months,” the Office of Management and Budget said.

Obama’s proposal includes a heavy dose of funding related to climate change, including $1.3 billion to “advance the goals of the Global Climate Change Initiative (GCCI).”

“The challenge of climate change will define the contours of this century more dramatically than any other,” Obama wrote in the introduction to his budget.

The funding includes $750 million for the “Green Climate Fund” to fight climate change in third-world countries. Taxpayer funding would also go towards implementing the president’s climate change plan for the United Nations summit in Paris last year.

The budget would also double spending on “clean energy research” from $6.4 billion in 2016 to $12.8 billion in 2021.

Funding for the Department of Transportation’s TIGER grants, many of which go to more bike paths, streetcar projects, and solar-paneled rest stops, would also nearly double.

The budget also increases taxes, with the creation of numerous new fees.

Aside from the “oil fee” of $10.25 per barrel, the budget would also impose a “financial fee” for large American firms.

“The Budget would also impose a new fee on large, highly-leveraged financial institutions,” the administration said. “Specifically, the Budget would raise $111 billion over 10 years by imposing a seven basis point fee on the liabilities of large U.S. financial firms—the roughly 100 firms with assets over $50 billion.”

Obama’s budget also introduces a Food Safety and Inspection Service fee; a biobased labeling fee; Grain Inspection, Packers, and Stockyards Administration fee ($30 million in 2017); an Animal Plant and Health Inspection Service fee ($20 million in 2017); and a Natural Resource and Conservation Service Conservation User fee.

Immigration inspection user fees would also be increased, as would custom user fees, which would raise $1.1 billion over 10 years.

The Environmental Protection Agency would begin collecting a “confidential business information management fee,” and the Federal Communications Commission would impose a spectrum licenses user fee to raise $4.8 billion over 10 years.

Cuts are down in the president’s final budget, from $34.2 billion in 2016 to $28.8 billion.

The budget includes a $10 million cut to grants for the Department of Health and Human Services abstinence-only sex education programs and a $1 million reduction to the Department of Labor’s “Women in Apprenticeship and Nontraditional Occupations” program.

Obama Budget Would Add Another $9.3 Trillion to the Debt

Of course the POS that is Barry and his federal government only know how to tax, spend and print a country to oblivion... With socialism there is no long term.

The two worst things that have happened to our nation's economy during my life time was Reagan/Bush tax cuts for the rich in the 1980's and the Bush tax cuts in the early 2000's. They never cut their spending a goddam dime...just borrowed enough to cover their spending from foreign banks. Hell Fire....you hand me $3-$6 trillion and even I could make everybody happy. Reagan borrowed $3 trillion 1980's dollars...Bush $6 trillion 2010 dollars. What a bunch of goddam losers!!!

As far as Obama.....over two trillion of his spending has gone to pay interest on the debt he assumed. You didn't think those foreign banks were handing us that money interest free did you? Republicans watch Fox News and never have a clue about what's really happening in America.

Here's a spending chart by president:

Your chart fails because it has 2009 spending on Bush. The vast majority of that spending in 2009 was signed by....Barrack Hussein Obama.

The budget set the actual total debt for 2015 at $18.1 trillion, projecting an increase of $9.3 trillion. When President Obama took office the debt stood at $10.6 trillion.

The White House budget for fiscal year 2017 includes old and new items of the president’s agenda, including the “Fair Share Tax” on the rich, known as the “Buffett Rule,” and a new tax on oil that would increase taxes by $319 billion over 10 years.

The $4.1 trillion budget also includes raising the minimum wage, “free community college” for two years, and the hiring of 200 new Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives special agents to “reduce gun violence.”

Obama again included his “preschool for all” initiative, which would cost $17.3 billion between 2017 and 2021, and total $66 billion over 10 years.

The budget claims it will “end family homelessness” at a cost of $1.2 billion by 2022.

A move to “standardize the definition for American Indians and Alaska Natives” used in Obamacare would cost $30 million in 2017.

Providing “full coverage of preventive health and tobacco cessation services” in Medicaid would cost $99 million in 2017 and $450 million by 2021.

Another budget item called “Enact RESPECT: Best Job in the World” would cost $50 million in 2017.

The budget also calls for a $12 billion increase in spending to have the government feed kids year-round.

“The Budget invests $12 billion over 10 years to create a permanent Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer for Children program that would provide all families with children eligible for free and reduced-price school meals access to supplemental food benefits during the summer months,” the Office of Management and Budget said.

Obama’s proposal includes a heavy dose of funding related to climate change, including $1.3 billion to “advance the goals of the Global Climate Change Initiative (GCCI).”

“The challenge of climate change will define the contours of this century more dramatically than any other,” Obama wrote in the introduction to his budget.

The funding includes $750 million for the “Green Climate Fund” to fight climate change in third-world countries. Taxpayer funding would also go towards implementing the president’s climate change plan for the United Nations summit in Paris last year.

The budget would also double spending on “clean energy research” from $6.4 billion in 2016 to $12.8 billion in 2021.

Funding for the Department of Transportation’s TIGER grants, many of which go to more bike paths, streetcar projects, and solar-paneled rest stops, would also nearly double.

The budget also increases taxes, with the creation of numerous new fees.

Aside from the “oil fee” of $10.25 per barrel, the budget would also impose a “financial fee” for large American firms.

“The Budget would also impose a new fee on large, highly-leveraged financial institutions,” the administration said. “Specifically, the Budget would raise $111 billion over 10 years by imposing a seven basis point fee on the liabilities of large U.S. financial firms—the roughly 100 firms with assets over $50 billion.”

Obama’s budget also introduces a Food Safety and Inspection Service fee; a biobased labeling fee; Grain Inspection, Packers, and Stockyards Administration fee ($30 million in 2017); an Animal Plant and Health Inspection Service fee ($20 million in 2017); and a Natural Resource and Conservation Service Conservation User fee.

Immigration inspection user fees would also be increased, as would custom user fees, which would raise $1.1 billion over 10 years.

The Environmental Protection Agency would begin collecting a “confidential business information management fee,” and the Federal Communications Commission would impose a spectrum licenses user fee to raise $4.8 billion over 10 years.

Cuts are down in the president’s final budget, from $34.2 billion in 2016 to $28.8 billion.

The budget includes a $10 million cut to grants for the Department of Health and Human Services abstinence-only sex education programs and a $1 million reduction to the Department of Labor’s “Women in Apprenticeship and Nontraditional Occupations” program.

all from the fairy Godfather here:
Obama Budget Would Add Another $9.3 Trillion to the Debt

Of course the POS that is Barry and his federal government only know how to tax, spend and print a country to oblivion... With socialism there is no long term.

The two worst things that have happened to our nation's economy during my life time was Reagan/Bush tax cuts for the rich in the 1980's and the Bush tax cuts in the early 2000's. They never cut their spending a goddam dime...just borrowed enough to cover their spending from foreign banks. Hell Fire....you hand me $3-$6 trillion and even I could make everybody happy. Reagan borrowed $3 trillion 1980's dollars...Bush $6 trillion 2010 dollars. What a bunch of goddam losers!!!

As far as Obama.....over two trillion of his spending has gone to pay interest on the debt he assumed. You didn't think those foreign banks were handing us that money interest free did you? Republicans watch Fox News and never have a clue about what's really happening in America.

Here's a spending chart by president:

Your chart fails because it has 2009 spending on Bush. The vast majority of that spending in 2009 was signed by....Barrack Hussein Obama.

We were still operating under Bush's budget for the first half of FY2009. The CBO estimated the deficit for FY2009 would be $1.2T before Obama was even sworn in.
