$180 Million Per Hour

[red states rule]

Pres Obama, Dems, and the liberal media are demanding tax increases to "solve" the debt issue. However when you take a hard lok at the amount of debt currently being racked up tax increases would be a drop in the ocean.

And would harm the already sagging Obama economy

This year the budget deficit will soar to about $1.7 trillion

That is about $4.3 billion per day

Or $180 million per hour

What and/or could the government tax that would cover that tab?

And that does nothing to reduce the national debt, the deficit in Social Security and Medicare, the unfunded pensions of federal workers and the military

Then you have the debt being racked up by the 50 states

When you run all the numbers the amount of debt the US currently owes is nearly one hunderd trillion dollars

So tell me, who is going to pay this debt off while the debt keeps growing?

We could sell carbon credits

We could sell carbon credits

Or we could do the logical thing and cut the damn spending

We are seeing what a total failure tax and spend liberalism is. 9.2$ unemployment; record people on food stamps; record deficits and debt; near non-existent economic growth; and the big bust that his "stimulus" was. You know, a trillion bucks to pay for all those shovel ready jobs to rebuild our "crumbling infrastructure"

So far each job "created" cost the US taxpayer only about $230,000

And the answer form the left is MORE spending and higher taxes

Don't make me come out there.
