column: Feds Use Imagination In Wasting Taxpayer Money

SLIGHTLY OFF THE MARK

 

            In honor of the Federal budget process:

            ( The Federal government enjoys nothing more than spending other people’s money. Some of the spending seems sensible to a degree, which is to say that if we had the money, it might be beneficial to some people. Unfortunately, we don’t have the money. We (meaning the government, meaning the taxpayer) haven’t had the money for a long time. I considered pointing that out to my Congressman, but I was afraid he’d just commission a federal study into why we don’t have the money for federal studies. )
