>> It is what happens when an economy starts to recover.

It is just a shame that "starting to recover" has taken five years instead of two, which it would had Obama not stood back and thrown money at it.

Ultimately, we are now at the mercy of low interest rates. With 16T in debt, which will be 20T before Obama leaves office, if, for any reason, the cost of money goes up, we've got big trouble.
