I can honestly say that Barack Obama has no intention of paying down our debt, in fact, with his policies, it is an impossibility.
The U.S. national debt as of today is near $16trillion or $16,000billion. We bring in a total of $2,372billion in annual tax revenue, we spend a total of $3,585billion every year, that leaves us over $1,200billion in debt each year.
President Obama wants to raise the marginal income tax rates on everyone making over $200,000 per year, he says he wants to go back to the Clinton era.
But by the highest estimates, this tax hike would amount to only $80-$100billion in annual tax revenue, my question is, where is the rest of the money coming from?
If we are spending ourselves in debt by the tune of $1,200 billion each year, and raising taxes will only bring in $80-100billion, what is his plan? We all know he does not want to balance the budget and will continue to spend, so is Obama wanting the economy to fail?
I look forward to the Obama supporters, (the ones with brains) to explain this to me, maybe I'm not seeing something.
