Before we reach full dudgeon, look at your link. Through Q1 2011, total outlays and tax cuts were $666B.
Of that, $293B were tax cuts, which were not so much the Jackbooted Boot of Government Waste, but God's Mother's Milk of Entrepreneurial activity, so those don't count.
Therefore, we have completely pissed away not $850B, but something more like $370B. Right?
