Political Factoid

The two greatest drivers of the
national debt over the past decade
have been the Bush Wars
and the Bush tax cuts.*
Unlike Social Security and Medicare,
for which taxpayers have been
paying explicit taxes,
there is no revenue source to
specifically pay for war or for tax cuts.
* That was back in 2011.
