You can keep saying that "Ronald Reagan was the mystery ingredient which put debt back into fashion", but unfortunately the facts remain that Obama leads Reagan on government debt growth by well over a country mile when the raw data is adjusted by both CPI and on a per capita basis, in order to provide a fair comparison.

Extreme political bias and hate sure does aid blinders to the actual record.



And total taxes, per the Tax Foundation, show that they were higher under Reagan than Obama, although Obama is catching up. Total taxes were way higher under Clinton too.



When you're stuck in a deep hole, stop digging yourself even deeper.
