Debt per President/Congress since 1981

[GeauxHerd]

An objective look at Congress and the Presidency with respect to National Debt since 1981. I would like to see one go back further than that if anyone finds one.

Geaux's post already contained that info, plus additional information. Was there a reason behind posting the same info twice?

True, however I was more interested in congress than the presidency.

Well, the democrats controlled the Senate from 1933 till 1981 with the exception of 1947-49 and 1953-55. They controlled the house from 1931- 1995 with the exception of the same 4 years.

Hmmm. Seems the debt went up the most during democrat controlled congresses....

Yep, now that the good guys have Congress back the rate of deficits has slowed again.
