Click on the link below for an informative article about "How the U.S. Racked Up $14 Trillion in Debt". Then click on "Click to view graphics" to open a new page. Scroll down to the graphics titled, "How the U.S. Got $14 Trillion in Debt and Who Are the Creditors". The column titled, "When the Debt Was Accumulated" adds to 14.3 trillion, and the column titled, "Who Holds the Debt" adds to 13.8 trillion. I assume our Britain and Oil Exporting Countries creditors, which have no number listed beside them, make up the .5 trillion difference. LOL According to the graphics, curtsey of the NY Times, 6.1 trillion of the debt was added during President George W. Bush's years, while only 2.4 trillion of the debt was added during President Obama's years. The explanation for the increases next to both President George W. Bush and President Obama are particularly telling as follows: George W. Bush (2001-9): Tax cuts, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, economic downturn in 2001 and recession starting in 2007. President Obama (2009-11): Stimulus spending, tax cuts, and the effects of 2007-9 recession in lost revenues and automatic spending, like unemployment compensation. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/2011/07/the-us-debt-crisis-in-charts.html Regards, LelandJ > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: geoff<data...@adam.com.au> > To: 'ProFox Email List'<profox@leafe.com> > Cc: > Sent: Monday, August 8, 2011 3:41 AM > Subject: RE: [OT] Looks like Obama is crashing the Australian markets too. > > Actually it is the efforts of GWB that is still harming markets around the > world.
