Lastly, Tax cuts would just people saving the money instead of spending it, more then likely the same with companies. Or are you saying if you got a tax cut, you'd go out and buy a new T.V. even when you have no security you'll have a job next week?

I can also count.
Spending money you do not have, with no way to pay back the money, is going to lead to bankruptcy.
There is also the fact that much of our debt is held by a country that we don't really consider a true and loyal ally.

But don't worry, he is going to extend health care to everyone and that will eliminate the deficit.
At least until Cap-n-Tax is passed, but those won't be taxes really because it will be the big bad energy companies that get soaked.
There is no way, absolutely impossible that those companies will then pass on the cost to you, the consumer.
Obama will step in and nationalize those industries too if they even try it.
