Not too bad anymore.  I remember 15% on money market accounts and CDs in the early 80s.  Of course inflation was a problem and Reagan raised Ruff's taxes.

Obama is following the paths of former presidents when it comes to balancing the budget.

Everyone remembers Reagan's 1981 tax cuts. His admirers are less likely to tout the tax hikes he accepted as the 1981 recession and his own tax cuts began to unravel his long-term fiscal picture--a large tax increase on business in 1982, higher payroll taxes enacted in 1983 and higher energy taxes in 1984. A decade later, when a serious recession and higher spending began to upend the fiscal outlook again, the first President Bush similarly raised taxes on higher-income people in 1991.
