A lot of the Obama Deficit was due to a couple of Bush era events:

1) The tax policies enacted during the Bush years to lower taxes,

especially on the wealthiest 2% of Americans, who really didn't need the

gift: The tax cuts to the wealthiest 2% of Americans did little, if

anything, to stimulate the economy; because, the increased demand for

good and services in this group was much smaller proportionally, dollar

for dollar, than the demand created in the remaining 98% of working,

middle class and poor Americans.

2) The housing bubble created during the Bush years, which concealed

the true state of the USA economy: When the housing bubble burst,

trillions of dollars in wealth were vaporized into thin air. This

required President Obama, and his administration, to take immediate,

drastic measures, in the form of stimulus, to prevent a collapse of our

country, and to contain the contagion effect on the rest of the world.
