I'm amused by your contention that it was Republicans that are responsible for borrowing enormous amounts of money. Were the Democrats not THERE in Washington while this was going on? .
The U.S. Government has been in control of the democrats for 60+ years in part or whole since 1946
----------Raising ANY taxes during a recession is not just stupid it is ludicrus,

You quote is dead wrong, they don't need it they want it. You couldn't give this president more money that he can spend, he is a spending marvel. Remember one thing, only congress can spend money, the president can only ask for it. Obama has asked for money his whole life because he name earned any on his own. The problem is that he has gotten what he asked for so you can't say that Obama never did anything.
Large boled fonts notwithstanding...but dead on.
CONTROL...period.

Yes, Obama OWNS Tax Increases; however, the "mandate" originated with Republicans. In other words, they were for it before they were against it. Republicans had every opportunity to reform healthcare - but they did not.
The mandate made its political début in a 1989 Heritage Foundation brief titled Assuring Affordable Health Care for All Americans, as a counterpoint to the single-payer system and the employer mandate, which were favored in Democratic circles. In the brief, Stuart Butler, the foundations health-care expert, argued, Many states now require passengers in automobiles to wear seat-belts for their own protection. Many others require anybody driving a car to have liability insurance. But neither the federal government nor any state requires all households to protect themselves from the potentially catastrophic costs of a serious accident or illness. Under the Heritage plan, there would be such a requirement. The mandate made its first legislative appearance in 1993, in the Health Equity and Access Reform Today Actthe Republicans alternative to President Clintons health-reform billwhich was sponsored by John Chafee, of Rhode Island, and co-sponsored by eighteen Republicans, including Bob Dole, who was then the Senate Minority Leader.
