How Ignorant Are They?

National debt as a percentage of GDP

When I saw this at Pensacola Beach Blog it occurred to me that it was a perfect illustration of why you don’t bother with the policies of Reagan and the Bushes to deal with the national debt – they failed miserably. If you want to reduce the debt, the look to the policies of Harry Truman and JFK.
