Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't most of the debt built up over the course of the Bush administration?
Seems to me I recall much of a large nat'l debt being paid off and under control during Clinton's watch. Of course money is going to have to be spent to bring about the "change" everyone keeps harping about but that shouldn't automatically mean the debt won't at least begin to be dealt with. We should all know by now it's going to take more than one or two terms of a new president to get it under reasonable control. Probably more like 20 terms of 10 presidents.
So you're predicting Obama will pull a "Bush" and increase the debt, and it will be that increase and not the existing debt racked up by the Bush admin that will bury the country?
Interesting take.
