The most egregious may well be the $1.9 trillion Covid Relief Bill where under 10% went to Covid Relief.

Congress appears to be building up slush funds.

When Obama got into office, the debt was $10 trillion. Look at what has happened in 11 to12 years.

I can remember being horrified when they passed a stimulus bill of $1 trillion and a bail out of $1 trillion (up until that point, we had dealt in billions) but it was as though Congress had broken through a new ceiling when passing spending bills. Now everything is in trillions without push back.
