Go out and read about economics. Then you will understand why Obama's administration may have a point. I suggest you start with Keynesian economics, then move on to Paul Krugman, a liberal economist who has criticized the Obama administration for not having a more aggressive relief package, but likes the new budget proposal. After that I suggest reading some George Soros in order to gain some understanding of exactly how we got into this mess. Maybe you can go back and look around for articles on how Reganomics and the agressive anti-regulation policies of the Republican party (and often, moderate Democrats), led to this mess. Also, you might read about the measures FDR took to get us out the the Great Depression. He didn't exactly worry about balancing the budget right off the bat.

In short, read something (the above are just things that came to me off the top of my head, but really, all you need to do is get on the internet or go to a bookstore and/or library), and think about what you are reading. Educate yourself, because you don't sound like you know what you are talking about. There are no easy answers right now, and it's definitely not as easy as you are making it out to be. Furthermore, if you didn't vote, you lose any right whatsoever to complain about anything. Ever. Again. If you can't find any difference between the parties and candidates, then and now, you aren't paying attention.
