<blockquote>Just today, the Congressional Budget Office announced that the deficit we are inheriting for this budget year will be $1.2 trillion. And we know that our Recovery and Reinvestment plan will necessarily add more. My own economic and budget team projects that, unless we take decisive action, even after our economy pulls out of its slide, trillion dollar deficits will be a reality for years to come.</blockquote>
After watching his speech today, it seems clear that Obama is going to throw money at the problem until it goes away. If we take him at his word, our national debt will stand at ~$16 Trillion dollars when he stands for re-election... and he hasn't even been sworn in yet.
Anyone here think this is a good plan?
