That puts Obama's spending over 5 years to almost 13 Trillion. He is going to make the economy worse. The GOP line of Dems = more taxes is true but I see tax as an investment in the country so I don't mind but there is a limit. Shared prosperity isn't bailing out idiots who keep refinancing their homes to pay their credit card bills. What is needed is a change in attitude towards credit and consumerism. Whilst Hilary is clearly politicing (and aren't they all) there is no need to bail out any lender who has bad lending practices designed to make maximum profits in the shortest period of time. And there is no need to 'save' the people who don't borrow from a reputable lender at some time shared prosperity has to met personal responsibility.

Obama your going to increase my taxes to a level that many will find unacceptable. Stop all the huge spending policy initiatives, their is only short term political gain derived from such a move. If you are the Dems candidate you're going to end up like you're robbing peter to pay paul. By this I mean and true or not you're going to have to increase the taxes on the people you are trying to bail out and that isn't going to actually win you any votes, those people being those who earn a 'middle' income
