It's just Monoply money to them,

But it's blood, sweat, and tears to us.

Economic Stimulus Bill of 2008 (tax rebates) $170,000,000,000
TARP of 2008 (save the banking system bill) $700,000,000,000
American Recovery Act 2009 (the “stimulus" bill) $820,000,000,000
2009 Budget (under Bush) $3,100,000,000,000
Omnibus Spending Bill (House has passed) $410,000,000,000
Mortgage Affordability Plan (estimate) $ 75,000,000,000
Health Care Proposal (estimate) $650,000,000,000

That adds up to $5,925,000,000,000.

It does not take into account the present deficit or the interest on the coming deficits, if we can convince someone to buy our debt. All except the last two items have already been voted into law.
