Bush didn't have a 3rd term. O_o

No one has since FDR.


Embarrasing mistake. Should read 2nd term and 1st term. Irritating that my otherwise flawless analysis now seems silly just from one stupid clerical mistake. None the less, thanks for pointing out the error.

I wouldn't call it flawless.... I mean, why would you use GNP insted of GDP? 

It's also somewhat misleading in that well spending keeps going up.

Afterall, raising spending from 10% to 20% of GDP isn't really as bad as raising spending from 55% to 60% of GDP is it?

If each presidents spending increases were all from the same baseline... you'd have a good point.

It's espiecally onerous when you consider tax revenue...

 

Calling Obama the largest government spender in recent memory isn't true... but that his spending is the most dangerous...

that would be accurate based on the huge gap between spending and overlays.
