You can thank a Republican Congress for neutering Obama and getting the deficit down.Blackvegetable » 22 Oct 2024, 9:35 am » wrote: ↑ So let's re-examine your "math"...
In 2000, the federal budget was in surplus.....and there was very serious discussion that the debt held by the public (3.34 trillion in q3 FY2001) might be eliminated in 10 years.
Your two votes for Scrub enabled a fiscal swing of more than 16 trillion over 8 years.....to the bad.
Then Obama cuts the deficit he inherited by 50% in his first term, and you vote for the other guy, promising tax cuts, in 2012. In his 8 years, spending rose at the lowest rate since Eisenhower. So in 2016, you voted for the Supply Side Huckster.....whose record FY 2021 deficit you blame on Biden.
Yea....you Da Man.
