| Media's Mask Is Slipping As Deficits Surge |
| 2009-06-18 |
| A calm Sunday breakfast might have been ruined after a glance at the Washington Post's front page on June 14. A chart below the fold explained that under Obama's federal spending proposals, the U.S. would be required to borrow $9 trillion during the next decade. That's $9,000,000,000. The Post compared that, in today's dollars, to the financial burden of World War II: $3.6 trillion. That's not all of Obama's spending plan. That's only the part that's in the red. |
