@Alexander, rising debt does not necessarily mean lowering economy. The US is still substaining it's debt far more than many other countries, like Greece and Japan, which have lower debt yet have it more unsubstainable, and speaking of debt, look at Luxembourg, that country being that it's small does not have a big GDP yet has debt over a trillion, yet is still able to substain it.

The US economy is still improving, most agree that the US's recession that started in 2007 is over. In 2015-2016, it'll be at it's best since it was back in 2003. Also, the North Dakota oil boom has contributed a lot to the plummeting gas prices, some US gas stations now sell gas for under $2.00

This comment is going off of real economic FACTS, not American-lead bias.
