Congress authorized Obama to spend another 1.1 trillion dollars?

It's pure insanity. I find it hard to stomach this insane amount of spending, and it certainly didn't start with Obama -- but I also feel that, if he's the perfect President he touts himself to be, it should end with him. We'll never pay this debt down. Never. If our government were regular homeowners, they'd be living under the bridge somewhere, having squandered every last penny. Or worse, they might be in jail for outright stealing. Some people seem to agree with Obama's spending policies. But, by and large, these tend to be the same people that agree with everything he does and also the same ones that disagreed with Bush's insane spending. I say enough is enough. The government doesn't have ANY money. It's our money they're spending! Politicians--ALL politicians--seem wholly disconnected from the American people. They think simply voting them in is a license to act however they please. I'm fed up with all of them. They're power-hungry tools who habitually admit as much every time there's a grassroots effort to get them to cut down on spending, term limits and salaries and they spit in the people's faces by blatantly ignoring it. They create their own America: It's a political class (which has different levels also) and then it's a people class. Politicians seem to only be running for office to make a career for themselves, where once in they lie, cheat and steal their way to lifelong success. Then they turn around and tell us to blame the Wall Street capitalist for doing the same thing. The irony being that the government is supposed to protect us from the greedy crooks, not run middle-pack with them. And we're all the fools that let it happen.
