So what's your point? If your trying to say "Bush spent a lot of money", well I must have said that hundreds of times on SI. Yes that is my point. But none of that supports your "reverse robin hood" claim. Oh really? Well what exactly happened to that 5 trillion that Bush added to the debt then? This amt of money represents a check for over 50K for every household in the USA, which is also more than the avg household income? In other words Bush added more to the debt on an average basis than the ENTIRE YEARLY INCOME for most families in the USA? Did you get your check or your gift from the fed that you didn't have to work in 08? No? Well then that means this giveaway was a reverse robin hood then.
