Waste And Abuse: The Refuse Of The Federal Spending Binge (Part 1 of 2) - House Oversight Committee - HVC 210 - 2011-02-17 - House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. Thursday's hearing of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, entitled "Waste and Abuse: The Refuse of the Federal Spending Binge," comes during the very week that President Obama presented a .73 trillion budget request to Congress that requires a record .65 trillion in deficit spending, pushes the national debt to surpass GDP for the first time since World War II, and uses budget gimmicks to hide wasteful discretionary spending.
