Lets take a look for a moment what this budget includes. If we look at this budget he starts out with blaming President Bush for creating these problems such as the Housing Market downfalll, the stock market failing, the recession, the unemployment rate, education downfall,healthcare downfall, and fiscal irresponsibility. If you ask me, it is not President Bush's fault. President Bush was doing just fine until the Amercan people decided to vote in a democratic Congress and that is when the trouble started. I mean especially the last part, President Obama is spending more than any other president before him combined.
Lets see what President Obama wants to do during his first term as president...
- $$$Create immediate relief through stimulius'
- $$$Increase food staff benifits for 30 million American's
- Reform assest testing
- $$$Extend, expand and reform unemployment benifets

- $$$ Increase funding for department of defense ($20.4 billion, or 4 percent, from the 2009 enacted level of $513.3 billion excluding funding in the recovery Act)
- $$$ Double foreign aid (That is why the Administration is committed to placing the Nation on a path to double foreign assistance to $50 billion)
- Expand the size of foreign service
- *$31.14 billion on Agriculture Department
- $1,335 million + an additional $4.7 billion on Commerce Department
