It is now undeniable, but the issue was never really in question. Obamanomics is a failure. Obamanomics is simply repackaged Keynesian economics mixed with socialism, progressivism, and sprinkled with a healthy dose of narcissism.
The “stimulus” hasn’t stimulated anything. The only jobs being created are in government, and many of those are temporary. The government is lying about these temporary jobs to build the false impression that companies are hiring and the recession is ending (gov’t fuels 413,000 gain with temp census hires). Census workers report being hired and fired multiple times and each instance of their hiring being reported as a new job, and their firing being done in a way to prevent collection of unemployment (Census Worker Claims Job Numbers Are Being Inflated)
Obama can no longer blame Bush for anything happening to the economy now. Obama’s continued deficit spending, giveaways and bailouts are breaking us. Obama and the left are ignoring the warning signs coming from Europe, and the signs staring us in the face here in our own country. This can be nothing more than the intentional destruction of the American economy and our capitalist system by a far left ideologue and his henchmen.
Wake up, America! If we don’t “drain the swamp” of corruption in Washington NOW, we likely won’t have the chance to do it later.

The federal government is now $13 trillion in the red, the Treasury Department reported Wednesday, marking the first time the government has sunk that far into debt and putting a sharp point on the spending debate on Capitol Hill.
Calculated down to the exact penny, the debt totaled $13,050,826,460,886.97 as of Tuesday, leaping nearly $60 billion since Friday, the previous day for which figures were released.
At $13 trillion, that figure has risen by $2.4 trillion in about 500 days since President Obama took office, or an average of $4.9 billion a day. That’s almost three times the daily average of $1.7 billion under the previous administration, and led Republicans on Wednesday to place blame squarely at the feet of Mr. Obama and his fellow Democrats.
“A $13 trillion debt is an alarm bell and a wake-up call combined, but Democrats are not even trying to pass a budget,” said House Minority Leader John A. Boehner, Ohio Republican. “How out of touch can Washington Democrats get? Instead of continuing to pay lip service to this issue, President Obama should call on congressional Democrats to pass a budget that provides the fiscal discipline economists say is needed to create jobs and grow our economy.”
The White House would not comment for the record, but an official speaking on the condition of anonymity said the administration is “committed to restoring fiscal responsibility.”
