BankruptingAmerica.org finished their “Year in Wasteful Spending” series today with entries #3 through #1. Links to the whole series:

• #1-3

• #4-6

• #7-9

• #10-12

• #13-15

My favorite is #5:

Welfare isn’t what it used to be. $69 million of California’s welfare dollars were accessed through the state-issued debit cards outside of the state. Where was the money spent? Vegas baby! $11.8 million in cash benefits were withdrawn in Sin City.

Remember: the bigger the system, the more inefficient the system becomes. Our federal government is very, very big, and it’s getting bigger all the time.
