US Debt Is Now $23 Trillion And Climbing
Too bad we only have
Barry The Muslim to thank for this! When the floppy-eared bastard took office, our national debt was only a mere 10.6 trillion. By the time he left us, he had jacked it up to TWENTY trillion, and increase of 189%! And gave it all to his buddies! After the Democrats caused the whole economic mess in the first place. And now Donald has inherited the mess with a dysfunctional Congress which won't let him implement any of his policies to bring it down!
An increase of 189%? Really? You sure you do not want to double check you math??
Maybe you better LEARN math, first, Goofy. And your spelling too while you're at it.
Just remember, you did ask for it...I tried to give you the chance to pretend it was a typo.
The percent of increase is calculated by subtracting the old number from the new number and then dividing by the old number.
Using the rough numbers you gave...
20-10.4 / 10.4 = 92.31%...far less than 186%.
Using the real numbers...$19,944,429,217,106 - $10,626,877,048,913 / $=10,626,877,048,913 = 87.68%....far less than 186%.
No charge for the basic math class, it is on the house.
