Man, that graph really puts it in perspective doesn't it? Though some might whine that the government borrowing is over a 10-year period and shouldn't be one spike on the graph. That would be kind of irrelevant criticism, though, as the bottom line is we can't borrow and spend our way out of a recession. Until we start creating actual goods and services no amount of money-shuffling is going to make the books look good.
