Another $1.2 Trillion?



ran 4.0 miles
Barack Obama requested another $1.2 trillion today. We need more monopoly money to pay off our debts. Our current president is on pace to outspend every other president combined if reelected. At the risk of sounding completely materialistic, our economy and our national debt are a couple of my top issues as a voter. These topics are essentially one of the few things I want to here candidates talk about.

What is more important than stopping America from losing all credibility, going bankrupt and eventually losing the identity it has held for so long as the greatest nation on Earth? How important are the other issues we value in America if our nation falls into a state of economic chaos similar to what happened in Greece?

And while we are dangling off the edge of a cliff by a single finger, let's go ahead and figuratively cut that finger off with an expensive health care overhaul that a majority of this country wants no part of.

553.6 miles to go.

Here is what happened one year ago on Day136.
