“And Congressional spending was once controlled by the Constitution.”

That hasn’t changed. It’s why you see Congress authorizing a raise in the debt limit all the time. So that they can indulge their desire to keep spending more.

Sorry, but if the Const. were still followed, there’d be no NEED to raise the debt ceiling....~95+% of the budget doesn’t fall within their authority.
