Nope, because the debt is still going up up and away, where are these new taxes coming from?

ETA:

Yep, the stock market is doing great....those people who cannot afford insurance are all over the stock market, they are doing awesome...right...everyone has stocks...right.........

Perhaps, but at least most of us can tell the difference between news and satire.

Because of sequestration cuts. Democrats wanted to do away with these cuts. And Maseman, do you think deficits falling means spending is under control? Really

ObamaCare is a gift the Republicans should accept as an unread blessing.

Do you mean the increases and doubling/tripling of the premiums of all of the healthcare plans we have been hearing about of late due to Obamacare? Or perhaps the Republicans (and everyone else) should be thankful that now if they don't prescribe to mandatory healthcare they will be fined incrementally and risk losing their homes? Or maybe everyone should be thankful that we now have 7 feet (when stacked) of regulations that are certainly going to cover much more than just healthcare and will be administered by, amongst others, the IRS. Or maybe we all should be thankful for all of the companies that have laid off workers or severely cut back their hours in order not to be mandated to participate in the affordable care act. Perhaps we should be thankful for all of the insurance compaines bailing out of offering insurance to states (Nebraska for one) because of the affordable care act. You are right, it is a blessing....to socialists, progressives and those who want to use government to control the rest of us (like our dictator president and his administration).

The debt has increased from around 10.5 to 15.6 Trillion since he has taken office. That is reality.
