During Clinton's administration we heard repeatedly that the USA was mortgaging the future of our children. The debt was so big that to pay it would be an obligation of our children. Suddenly, Clinton reduced the deficit and left to Bush a surplus. Our grandchildren would not have already to worry about the national debt.
The administration of Bush, for the first time in the history of the United States, reduced the taxes and began two wars. Presupuestal father turned the deficit at the levels that Clinton had inherited from Bush. The strange thing is that the phrase “the nation is mortgaging the future of our children” never it was used.
On September 11 it caused that the nation was granting to Bush absolute power to spend what was necessary to support the national safety. This never untied an expenses bacchanal earlier experienced. The country went so far as to have a budget deficit of $ 3 trillions and a national debt of more than $ 78 trillions. The phrase “the nation is mortgaging the future of our children” never it was used.

The people is not dumb and in 2008, putting aside his prejudices, it chose a new administration with diametrically opposite ideas. And with less than two months in the power the merchants of myths and lies in the means have resuscitated the phrase “the nation he is mortgaging the future of our children”.
To find the solution we have to extract in view of the day the causes of this disaster, punish the culprits, to reform the system and to regulate the markets... The president Obama did not cause this situation but we choose it so that it was solving it.
