CBO: Deficit is $1.8 Trillion Dollars

The CBO has reported that Obama’s budget would put the United States into a deficit of $1.8 Trillion this year.  Even more worrying is that under Obama’s policies the debt would grow to 82 percent of the entire US economy by 2019. This will certainly pose problems for Obama’s proposed $3.6 Trillion budget.

The massive spending needs to stop before we get swallowed up by a black hole of debt. This is not the time to be pushing things like governmental health care, not that there would ever be a good time to institute it anyhow.
