Key takeaway from the report from TPC:

“Under either Senator Obama’s or Senator McCain’s plan, however, the debt would likely continue to rise as it has over the past eight years, even under the CBO’s relatively optimistic assumptions about spending. Senator Obama’s plan would add $3.3 trillion to the national debt (including additional interest costs) while Senator McCain’s plan would add $4.5 trillion.”

I just wanted to point out that, according to the report, the deficit would increase by $1.2 trillion more under the McCain plan.

Those are both scary numbers, and both not good for the general economy. The deficit and debt is a critical national security issue for a myriad of reasons.

Speaking for myself, I don’t need a federal tax cut — I need inflation under control.
