111th Congress Added More Debt Than First 100 Congresses Combined: $10,429 Per Person in U.S.



Before criticing about Republican spending, Democrats are worst.......

(CNS News) The federal government has accumulated more new debt--$3.22 trillion ($3,220,103,625,307.29)—during the tenure of the 111th Congress than it did during the first 100 Congresses combined, according to official debt figures published by the U.S. Treasury.

That equals $10,429.64 in new debt for each and every one of the 308,745,538 people counted in the United States by the 2010 Census.

In fact, the 111th Congress not only has set the record as the most debt-accumulating Congress in U.S. history, but also has out-stripped its nearest competitor, the 110th, by an astounding $1.262 trillion in new debt.

Democrats controlled both the House and Senate in the 110th and 111th Congresses.
