In 2002, the poverty rate in America was about 12 percent. In 2009, it was about 14 percent, up two points despite more than $4 trillion in welfare spending over that period. Medicaid, which counts for $276 billion this year, an 87 percent rise in 10 years. Food stamps are also big, up a whopping 260 percent in 10 years. Child nutrition programs are up 82 percent, low income energy assistance is up 190 percent Immigration iilg & legal w/ kids up 57% SOCIALISM AT IT'S BEST
AGRICULTURE SECRETARY Vilsack's said “that food stamps were helping to bolster the economy by getting buying power into people's hands” WH VARNEY said “unemployment extensions help improve the economy” BS -they are bankrupt'g taxpayers Put everyone on food stamps & unploy't then everyone will be happy in SOCIALIST FAIRYLAND
Before last election Congress controlled by Dems Since Barack Obama took office, the national debt has increased by $4 trillion. That's in just two and a half years. In eight years under President Bush, a big spender, the national debt increased $4.9 trillion.
So doing the math, if Mr. Obama's spending jag continues as is, he would run up almost $13 trillion in debt if he serves two terms. That's nearly three times what Bush did and far more than any president in American history.
