That’s $4,111 for every man, woman and child (based on 300 million population) or $16,444 for a family of four (just for the added deficit).
Thank God for Excel.

mostly due to the mammoth tax-cut package brokered by President Barack Obama and lawmakers last month There was NO TAX CUT. There was an extension of the Bush tax cuts, which prevented a mammoth tax increase.

Articles and politicians and talk hosts are rounding this massive $1.48 Trillion number off to 1.5
Just think of that. Just 0.02
Which is $20 BILLION dollars.
1/3 of the Department of Education Budget.
Soon we’ll be talking about real money....

The mess in Washington can not be “fixed”. To try is to extend the damage. It is beyond control. Now survival is up to the several states. I hope they are up to the task. Those who claim to be able to salvage this ship are lying. It has ten holes and one cork. It is going down.

Obama’s liberal followers and voters do not care about cutting to tackle the deficits. They just have their hands out to get something for nothing. When the Republicans do the dirty work cutting, they will whine about how unfair it is.

There was no tax cut!
The tax rate simply stayed the same. In fact the same tax rate Bush had from 01-08, which averaged a deficit of around $350 billion. Weird, huh?

Only $20 billion? I’ll take it, if it will simplify the math.
