You know, with regards to the whole Debt Ceiling debate, rather than share my thoughts, I’d just like to say this. I’m with Obama. Politics aside, I have to agree 100% with our President. For example, I agree 100% with the president when he said, in 2006 (as Senator Obama):
“The fact that we’re here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign — is a sign of leadership failure. Leadership means the buck stops here. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America’s debt limit.”
And I also agree 100% with the President, who in 2009, said this:
“The last thing you want to do is raise taxes in the middle of a recession, because that would just suck up, take more demand out of the economy and put businesses in a further hole.”
And that last comment came when GDP was growing about three times fastr than it is now. Yup, I agree 100% with the President.
