So the Democrats want more
taxesrevenue? Seriously?[This week] for the first time in history U.S debt was downgraded. The Left still denies that President Obama has a lot of responsibility for this situation, instead laying blame on Republican refusal to raise taxes on the rich.
As I have written previously, it is dishonest to give voters the impression that tax increases on the rich is a solution to the deficit. In the latest projection by the Congressional Budget Office, the ten year deficit is estimated at 13 trillion dollars. By contrast, Obama’s various tax increases on the rich will only bring in 1 trillion in the same period.
The 13 trillion dollar deficit which the President helped create and long terms entitlement deficits are the main reason why S&P downgraded U.S debt, not the 1 trillion in tax increases which Republicans prevented…
…As a response to the economic crises and based on ideological conviction, President Obama decided to expand federal non-defense spending more than any President in recent history. This unprecedented expansion of government can perhaps be justified by orthodox Keynesianism. But we should not allow the left to deny the magnitude of expansion itself, which they are trying to do.
…What emerges is what I refer to as the Obama Hockey Stick, parallel to the IPCC global warming Hockey Stick. While federal Non-defense spending was quite constant previous to Obama, it has risen rapidly under his administration…
GREAT POST Curt!!!! Sharing
Don’t ya’ll get a penalty for high stickin’?????
Notice (you have to start at the 1975 point in my graph) how employment, part-time for economic reasons, almost exactly mirrors that graph.
Next, see this one which also looks very similar, Unemployment for MORE than 26 weeks.
Obama looks upon unemployed and under-employed people as constituents.
Obama looks at taxpayers as enemies.
Thus the mirroring of these graphs.
Great post and BTW, it’s not the Tea Party Patriots fault!!
