This was just the foot in the door. From here, they will find a way to manipulate the amount they can spend, without voting on another bill.
It will “just happen” and most Americans will wake up one day (probably between now and February 1, 2009) to hear that the govt will now increase the limit to $2 trillion. At some point, it will be $5 trillion because: “THE CRISIS WILL MEAN THE END OF THE WORLD AND WE WILL ALL BE DOOOOOMED IF WE DON’T SPEND THIS MONEY!!! WE CAN’T TAKE THE TIME TO VOTE BECAUSE WE NEED THE MONEY NOW, NOW, NOW!!!”
