The recently deposed Republican majority increased the federal debt by $7.9 trillion in the eight years it controlled the House of Representatives.
At the close of business on Jan. 4, 2011, the day before the Republicans took control of the House, the debt was $14,014,049,043,294.41, according to the Treasury.
On Jan. 3, 2019, the last day before the Republicans turned control of the House back to the Democrats, the debt closed at $21,929,258,046,653.58.
So, under the Republican House majorities in four Congresses, the debt climbed $7,915,209,003,359.17.

Does it really matter if the jackboot stomping on your face forever is on the left or the right foot?

yes... yes we are.

yes... yes we are.

Republicans are only slightly better domestically, both major parties are warhawks,
so yea, I agree, no difference when it comes to killing to feed Haliburtonesq' firms, and
the military industrial complex in general.
