America’s Debt Bomb: Worse Than Europe’s
It has been said many times in recent months that we aren’t Greece. Now it
will start to be said that we aren’t Spain. Both propositions are certainly
true. (For one thing, Spain elected its socialist government in 2004, thus
getting a head start on us.) But if we compare America’s debt crisis to
Europe’s as a whole, how do we stack up?
The Republicans on the Senate Budget Committee did the math and produced
this graphic, which shows that the U.S. is now deeper in debt than the
entire Eurozone, plus the United Kingdom. (The Democrats on the committee
are too busy dodging their legal obligation to come up with a budget to
produce anything.):
The populations of the two entities are almost exactly the same, so the U.S.
debt is larger on a per capita basis, too. Really, is it going too far to
ask how an administration that put the U.S. in such a deep hole can have the
temerity to seek re-election?
UPDATE: Mark Steyn thinks I am understating the problem and being too nice
to the Obama administration. |
