This is a very nifty chart here showing the fantastic growth in the debt, mostly under republican presidents. Really. Look. http://www.lafn.org/gvdc/Natl_Debt_Chart.html
They even address republicans complaints about the graph, eg., Congress was not majority republican under Reagan (false). What this chart tells me is that the silly 'tax cuts generate revenue', 'trickle down, 'supply-side' GOP nonsense theories of economics cause huge deficits and debt growth that they then scream about while also screaming about the taxes that will be necessary to pay for that redistribution of wealth upwards. Why do the names of their preferred, help the rich get richer theory keep changing? As each name is discredited by real life failure, they change the name to keep their base faithful believers, despite evidence to the contrary? I wonder what help-the-rich-get-richer policies will be called next?
