Just getting a thread started because I want to see how the untrustworthy posters spin this.

It looks like spending as a percentage of the economy is actually down. If government spending is down and the deficit is up in such an extreme way while the economy is growing. What on earth is happening here. I yield to the posters with a degree from Fox News because they've assured me that I didn't know what I was talking about when I warned about this before with my lowly economics degree and my make believe MBA.
