When Bush was president we incurred debt at a rate of $1.6 billion a day. Under Obama it is $4.1 billion a day.

Most Americans can't even name their Congressman, much less know how the Federal government determines spending.

Re: "Budgets do not come from the White House. They come from Congress...."

Close, but no cigar.

Typically Presidents propose budgets and then the Congress passes budgets for the President to sign.

Nothing is law until it is approved by both houses and signed into law by the President.
