Federal Debt Up $7 Trillion Under Obama

[Chef Ramsay]

(CNSNews.com) - The total federal debt of the U.S. government has now increased more than $7 trillion during the slightly more than five and a half years Barack Obama has been president.

That is more than the debt increased under all U.S. presidents from George Washington through Bill Clinton combined, and it is more debt than was accumulated in the first 227 years of this nation's existence--from 1776 through 2003.

The total federal debt first passed the $7-trillion mark on Jan. 15, 2004, after President George W. Bush had been in office almost three years.

We have to pass it to know what's in it.

We have to spend it to know how much we spent.

That's a fairly large number 7/17 = A 41% Increase wonder if it can get to 50%
I'm looking at the US debt clock to base that off of.

Good news. If the federal debt snowball like this, then the (real) value of the USD will decline, thereby boosting the purchasing power of Bitcoin. I am not complaining. Go on Obama!
