$16,000,000,000. Sixteen Trillion dollars. Mainly because it costs money in order to actually invest in an economy. Obama has failed to chop the debt in half like stated, but succeeded in running the economy upwards, which will eventually pay off the debt.

Bush had bought plans we're forced to pay for, and was bought already into nine trillion dollars of debt when Obama came in.
