^^Delusional and cannot accept reality of Obama lowering taxes while Cons opposed.
Link? You do know people now are forced to pay for insurance even if they are young and healthy and don't want it? I think most will just pay the fine since it is cheaper that way. I wonder if you are in that catagory or if you are still on your parents insurance and it won't affect you.
Most of the debt is the continuation of old policies and the recession.
Obama only signed deficit reductions plans for the plans 4 years.
Then again, you are just a delusional Con who probably thinks Obama is expanding deficits...lmao.
I thought Obama said he would fix the problem by now. At least, that is why most people who voted for him believed. I know your answer----it's Bush's fault Obama can't fix anything.

So Obama did not lower payroll taxes while Cons objected?
FFS, Cons are already rewriting history, like they did with the civil rights movement.
Sorry, but no one with a sound mind is buying your BS.
But you think Obama has had nothing to do with more of the debt even though it is now at 17 trillion and he wants to borrow more?
The first $1 trillion deficit, in fact the largest deficit in US history occurred under Bush if I'm not mistaken during his last year, now I'm not sure if Democrat or Republican politicians have a way to deal with these staggering numbers in a feasible way, but just as I proposed yesterday, we should create a Sovereign Wealth Fund and permit the Federal Govt to drill on federal lands and exchange a few percent of that is invested into infrastructure that create jobs, while the remaining is saved. Another thing I proposed yesterday is for the US to begin building a FOREX (foreign reserve) to at least balance things out between us and our creditors.
Health care is just a part of our debt. What about the other parts?
How about the military part where we spend more on military than the rest of the world combined.
How about those owners of manufacturing companies that move their plants to China.
If i were trying to pay down a major debt i think i'd be focusing on where the money is and not expecting those on food stamps to solve the problem.
I'd also not put too much blame on a President who's opposition seems to delight in thwarting everything he tries to do by obstruction,filibuster and voting no on anything he tries to enact to solve the problems..
