Is there a running tally of how much money Obama is spending?

I haven't been able to find anything complete. I keeping ending up back at the $3.6 trillion budget with a very limited breakdown of the money.

Roughly $10 Billion per day.

Of that, $3.8 Billion is money we don't have. That's $12.20 every day for every man woman and child in the United States.(that we don't have.)

Another way to look at it: The US government is spending $115,741 per second. Of that, $43,981 that we don't have.

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought
