how to kill the goose that laid the golden eggs

2-2-=2019    as it stands, Trump could add roughly the same amount of debt as Obama over two terms. 

total debt accumulated by president v2Andy Kiersz/Business Insider 

 while the raw debt figures are astonishing, putting the accumulation in percentage terms provides a somewhat different picture.  Based on Treasury data and CBO projections: 
  The national debt grew by 15% through February 11 of Clinton's first term and ended up growing by 36% by the end of the 2000 fiscal year, the final full fiscal year of his presidency.  The debt grew by 12% during Bush's first 752 days and grew by 75% when the 2008 fiscal year came to a close. 
  Under Obama's first two years and change, the national debt grew by 33%, and it grew by 84% by the end of the 2016 fiscal year. The debt grew 10% in Trump's first 752 days and is projected to grow by 44% by the end of the 2024 fiscal year.   https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-national-debt-deficit-compared-to-obama-bush-clinton-2019-2
