So the debt increase was just fuzzy math.Only in a total vacuum, dumbass.Actually the deficit was created by spending money we don't have.....not by cutting taxes. This is why the deficit climbed by over 300% once Democrats took over congress in 2007.the Billionaire Cartel takes care of their own while pissant RW's pay their way, suck their dicks, and LIKE IT.
THEN BITCH ABOUT THE DEFICIT TAX CUTS CREATED,
you wouldnt know actually if it bit you in the ass either ..
Trumps tax cuts would add $7 billion to the deficit.
now wipe off your chin and thank him ...
Besides.....Obama added $10 trillion to the debt. What's $7 billion in comparison?
Well.....
It's .0007% of Obama's total debt.
Debt only grew to that degree under Obama because he inherited a $1.4 trillion deficit. If you're being handed a government that is structured to bleed $1.4 trillion per year, of course debt is going to increase in the following years. All you can do is work to reduce the deficit each year, which is precisely what we saw under Obama with the deficit being slashed by nearly $1 trillion. That is the fastest rate of deficit reduction since WWII but, yes, of course debt increased during that time.
It's that super duper cut in the deficit that really mattered.
OH EYE - SEA NOW!!!
Debt is a function of annual budget deficits. Are you honestly not aware of how that works? Clinton inherited a federal budget deficit of $365 billion and left us with a budget surplus of $156 billion. Bush inherited a budget surplus and left us with a $1.4 trillion - with a T - deficit. Obama inherited a $1.4 trillion deficit and left us with a $587 billion deficit. To anyone with a very basic knowledge of math it is fairly clear to see that Clinton improved our deficit situation (which served to slow our national debt woes), Bush severally hurt our budget deficit (the results of which we are still dealing with today, and will continue to deal with for years), and Obama clearly had our budget moving back in the right direction.
I'll ask you again, mudwhistle. Trump is now proposing that we sharply cut taxes and ramp up defense spending. Go back and look at the charts that I gave you. What do you predict the outcome of that will be? How has that worked for us in the past? I mean, even today, our budget still hasn't fully recovered from the Bush tax cuts much less the Great Recession. What do you think piling on more tax cuts and more spending will do? Honest question here.
