Political Factoid

Under G.W. Bush, the Republicans
collected l8% of the GDP as taxes
and spent even more,
... establishing a huge national
debt that was doomed to
continue for years under the
policies they had established.
Under Barack Obama, the government
collected less than 15% of the GDP in
taxes -- and of a much, much lower
GDP at that, thanks to the Republicans
in Congress.
