When Bush took office the debt was 5.7 trillion, 8 years later it was 10.8 trillion. In 8 years he raised the debt by 5.1 trillion. Today that debt is at 14.6 trillion, Obama has raised it 3.5 trillion in a little over 2 years. This tells me that Obama is spending at a faster rate then Bush and IF he wins a second term and keeps this pace in another 5 1/2 years he will have raised it to 19.5 trillion. Numbers don't lie. Gas prices and the debt they have is wrong, but the rest of it is correct and so are my numbers. http://www.usdebtclock.org/ its not that simplistic though because Bush last fiscal budget was actually not over until october of 2009, when the debt was close to 12.1 trillion we will have to see where the deficit stands in october of 2013 to truly do a comparison,,,, Where did you find this? http://www.gpoaccess.gov/usbudget/browse.html tells which years correlate to which presidents budget http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiscal_year#United_States explains how long a fiscal year runs http://www.gpoaccess.gov/usbudget/fy11/pdf/hist.pdf shows federal debt at the end of fiscal year 2009 at approximately 11.9 trillion (roughly 6.1 more than eight years prior, or more than 100 percent increase, depending on how you want to look at it) it now stands at 14.6 trill( roughly , or 2.7 tril more than two years earlier, or 25 percent increase, depending upon how you want to look at it) Ok so instead of him spending 3.5 trillion he spent 2.7, kinda splitting hairs when your talking trillions. yes, the government has seen a 25 percent increase in their debt in two years, as opposed to 100 percent over eight years its right on target actually, except things were already 'balanced' at the beginning of that eight year cycle and were at the breaking point already at the beginning of that two year cycle but, as usual, its gonna take time to truly tell what , if any , differences exist(ed) |
