Your helpful Thanksgiving charts about the deficit
As Rachel promised on the show, here are the charts that show the U.S. deficit is not growing but shrinking -- in fact, it's shrinking faster than at any time since the end of World War II. The first chart comes from our own Steve Benen. The second is from Jed Graham at Investor's Business Daily. Let us know how it goes out there, will ya?
