Regardless if a Democrat or Republican is elected as President in 2016, do you think he or she will raise the National Debt? My apologies because I tried to offer Opinion selections but I did not know the procedures.
Nobody wants to be known as the President who slammed on the brakes of the American Economy and launched the world economic system into recession. Your question also assumes that the President has sole power in the budget process.
the next president has no choice but raise the national debt... because the laws enacted currently don't afford any alternative, and since the president is not the branch that writes the laws or controls the budget, the president is just in it for the ride... unless the president wants to shut down government until a balanced budget is sent to their desk... do you want the next president to stop raising the national debt? no matter the cost? what if your favorite girl int he whole world HillHill and democrats took over control of all 3 branches of government, would you support them passing more spending measures to raise the national debt beyond the deficit we already have?
The only question is by how much... And that depends a lot on the congress. Considering we have a republican congress and that probably won't change,,, we won't do much to decrease deficits, and will probably increase them. If a republican is elected president, then they will increase a lot.
Good question! 2017 is supposed to be a Jubilee year............ (at least according to Rabbi Judah ben Samuel.) If....... the next USA President comes to a place of agreement with President Obama's older brother Malik Obama, that it is time to discuss the rebuilding of the Jerusalem Third Temple, then America could well be blessed with an understanding of the less than completely honest mathematics behind our national debt. http://www.politicalforum.com/religion-philosophy/381229-jesus-returns-2017-a.html ....... http://www.politicalforum.com/econo...our-billion-dollars-how-can-we-do-2013-a.html President Lincoln saved taxpayers four billion dollars...how can we do this in 2013? I was given a copy of this article in 1994. After reading this article those lectures from Economics 101, 212 and Economic History sure took on a whole new level of importance. http://www.michaeljournal.org/lincolnkennedy.htm Melvin Sickler: OK, so how do we apply this information in 2013 without scaring the guys on Wallstreet, who have a tendency to go out on their balconies and jump, if investors get scared....which actually could happen even if government did something intelligent!!!!!???????
