Nemo 4,410 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Don't act shocked, he was against austerity programs in the U.S., too. Unlike all the right-wing morons who learned nothing from the Great Depression. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Economy 52,861 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Obama and Democrats are spenders. This really isnt surprising Any left or centre wing party will support stimulus even as the country holds a massive debt of 160% of GDP+ Im sorry but u cant spend your way out of a debt crisis. You reach a point eventually where you have to make tough decisions and cut spending The economic drag from lower Government spending and restructuring wears off eventually and over the long run is better than short term bosts that will add to even more debt and interest payments :shrug: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
