Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: A graph, created using Google Spreadsheets, depicting the U.S. federal debt from 1940 to 2014, as a percentage of gross domestic product (GDP). Presidential terms of Democratic (blue) and Republican (red) presidents are shown. This is an improvement over the previous file (see below) for the following reason: the data now goes through 2014 (previous version was 2012) and all data comes from one dataset. It is important to note a fundamental difference between this file's depiction and the previous file's depiction. This file depicts the transition between presidential terms as the year of inauguration while the previous file depicts the transition as the year that the previous president's budget policy is replaced by the new sitting president's budget policy. The first year of each presidential term which remains under the previous president's budget policy is no longer depicted. In other words, this new file depicts the transition to a new president one year before the new president's budget policy comes into effect.
