My, my, here come the fuzz.
"Hello, I'm from the government...
and I need some money."
Please take a look at this chart. As some of you may have realized by now, our economy is not doing so great. The value of the dollar continues to fall and many people are having a hard time making ends meet. How exactly are we supposed to pay for this increased government spending that the presidential candidates are calling for?
| New Spending Proposed by 2008 Presidential Candidates | |
| Candidate | Total Proposed Spending Increase (Annual, in Billions) |
| Clinton | $218.2 |
| Giuliani | -$1.4 |
| Huckabee | $54.2 |
| McCain | $6.9 |
| Obama | $287.0 |
| Paul | -$150.1 |
| Romney | $19.5 |
| Thompson | $56.1 |
