I don't believe trillions pent reimbursing banks and wallstreet for their investment losses, in order to prop up their company stock so their execs could continue to collect their bonuses, as a good deficit spending.

Z,
Oh come on. Pretty much everyone thinks that, in reality.

That's a very weak defense for hypocrisy. "Oh come on, everyone thinks that."

If you have to argue over what is "good deficit spending" vs. what is "bad deficit spending," you shouldn't complain AT ALL about "deficit spending" in general.

Most conservatives did complain when Bush ran up the deficits to $400B/year.

Not one liberal complained when Obama ran up the deficits to $1.2T/year.

It's that simple.
