he inherited a $1.539 trillion dollar deficit and now has it under $500 billion, despite the shaky economy he inherited which obviously makes it more difficult to cut the deficit.

THANKS, OBAMA!

6 trillion deeper in debt. who cares what the deficit is..........we're sinking. don't get me wrong; I don't blame your hero. just don't laud him.

[UncleBuck]

who cares what the deficit is..........

how can you care what the debt is if you don;t care what the deficit is?

 

[UncleBuck]

worrying yourself about the debt without carng what the deficit is is like trying to get down a mountain without worrying if you're headed uphill or downhill.

it's something a retarded person might do.

 

[DonAlejandroVega]

the deficit has decreased by a half trillion, and that's great, maybe, but debt has ballooned to 16 trillion, not including unsecured liabilities. a small number has decreased by 50%; a huge number has increased by 106%.

 

[DonAlejandroVega]

we owe the farm, and then some, we have no jobs, confidence is at an all-time low, divisiveness, at an all-time high.

thanks, State!

I don't blame O, I don't blame Bush, I won't blame Shillary.

 

[UncleBuck]

the deficit has decreased by a half trillion

 

[DonAlejandroVega]

oh...sorry. a trillion. one. that's terrific.

the nation isn't producing. record numbers receiving assistance. things are great.

 

[UncleBuck]

the nation isn't producing.

well, except for the $16 trillion annual GDP, twice as much as any other nation.

 

[DonAlejandroVega]

well, then........let us pay our debt, if we are so well-heeled.......lol.

 

[UncleBuck]

well, then........let us pay our debt, if we are so well-heeled.......lol.

i believe that's the point of continuing to cut the deficit, as obama is doing.

I didn't realize he was such the economist

I can live in a refrigerator box, under the Ben Franklin Bridge, and be a good person. I'm confused.

so, what you're saying is, its O's economic policies that are "turning us around."
what are they?

 

[Harrekin]

Deficit is still over 400 billion dollars and the US is back in recession.

Thanks Obama!!!

Imagine if we counted the trillion a year the FED magically adds each year.

Has cut it to half a trillion eh?
Total deficit spending under Bush II was $3.3 Trillion in total.
Total deficit spending under Obama so far (he has 3 more years of additions) is $5.1 Trillion

Which makes Obama the single largest deficit spending president OF ALL TIME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, he could cut that deficit and turn it into a positive by $ 1 trillion and still not be as much of a penny pincher as Bush was. HAHA, Idiot.

bush was left with a surplus or, at the very worst, an even spreadsheet.

obama was left with the biggest annual structural deficit OF ALL TIME.

starting from the same baseline, obama's fiscal policies are much better than not only bush, but better than any republican in modern history.
