The part of your post I responded to was:

"Because in one case, the spending takes place under the supervision of the people's representatives who can be held to account by the voters or the Law.

That you can actually say that with a straight face shows part of the problem in this country.

We just dumped almost a trillion dollars of tax money in a bill that neither you, or your representative for that matter, even read prior to it being signed."

This is almost a definition of what an omnibus spending bill is. And (to reiterate) I do not recall you having this particular objection for the last 8 years.

As to all the other items in your rant, I really feel ugly when I resort to a fisky approach. Your use of buckshot requires either a good fisking or selecting a single or a few points to discuss, and I chose the latter.
