National debt hits $19 trillion

The Long Story of U.S. Debt, From 1790 to 2011, in 1 Little Chart

As a percentage of GNP, this debt level is comparable to the debts the government borrowed during the Civil War and World War II.

I don't see any of the candidates promising to get us out of debt. In fact, all of them are pushing programs that would increase the debt.

Try total around 50 to 60

One would think with all this spending the infrastructure of the nation, that many Ds like to talk about, would be shiny and new. Obama is the biggest spending POTUS ever, yet infrastructure is in disrepair. One would think Ds would question where all the money is going.

Ive got an idea! Let's give out more free stuff!

How sicking...

None of this debt went to infrastructure, science, r&d or education...We got fucked and didn't even get something for it.

How far would 19 trillion dollars reach end to end? Beyond Neptune's orbit but do not think it would reach the Ort Cloud.

Thanks to your beloved Obama.

Obama's legacy - increase the debt by $10 trillion...and vastly - VASTLY improve the profits of the top wealthiest people and companies in the world.

Let's not forget the trillions bush charged to the credit card for his wars; not to mention all the US troops he sent off to their deaths, along with innocent civilians, but nutters don't care about that.

Obama did the same...and then REALLY ramped up the spending by literally handing over our money to the wealthiest companies in the world. And it worked flawlessly...the top 7% wage earners in America have seen their earnings rise a whopping record 33% - while everyone else lost 5%.
Obama - the corporate puppet.

No one did forget what the fool W the progressive did. Unfortunately, many on the Left don't comprehend or care what Big Ears has done.

And yet, the media hardly says a peep about this. Income inequality is a big issue to the Left, but only when an R is in office.

Absolutely...if a Republican President was in office the past 8 years the media would be justifiably screaming their heads off about how extraordinary well the wealthy have made off while everyone else suffers...but since it is one of their anointed ones - not a f*cking word.
I have repeated the line about the top 7% gaining 33% while the remaining 93% of WORKING Americans have lost 5% - and never -ever-ever get a response from anyone on the left here.

Congress has more control over spending. Congress is republican.
