Well, Bush spent as MUCH as ALL the previous Presidents combined and I don't remember you railing against HIM that much. And HE wasn't facing the worst economic collapse in the HISTORY of the United States when he did so. I think everything is relative. If you have a LOT of bucks in investments and can afford personal security and are sophisticated enough to move your asset allocations around then you probably wouldn't mind seeing everything bite the dust. Folks in the 1930's with a lot of cash were able to pick up assets for 10 cents on the dollar and they didn't care for Roosevelt at all. Me, I'm into resource stocks and can use a little inflation and a falling dollar. To each his own....
