Government - Historical Debt Outstanding - Annual 2000 - 2014
You start running the clock on his contribution to the debt at 9/30/09, there is no way that it will double. That includes handing him programs like food stamps, whose increase was a direct result of the Great Recession. Drop in home ownership direct result of the Great Recession. Increasing unemployment benefits to 99 weeks a direct result of the Great Recession.
Try honestly looking at the causes of the debt increase, and place the blame, if you have too, where it belongs. |
You mentioned the Iraq war, and I see nobody debating the entry.
HOWEVER, HOW and WHY we left in such haste, which by every military account I have read or that is available was the largest single factor in the explosion of ISIS and savage terrorism in the ME.
I also would request some documented links, proof or something that tells us that the increase in poverty programs you mention are a result of the 2008 recession. You cannot just say things and make accusations with no basis and you have none, nor will find any.
And any analysis, good or bad will need to wait until the economic albatross called ACA is totally implemented
