Government, by definition, is incompetent and corrupt.
"It almost seems as though Congress actually enjoys inventing new ways to waste U.S. taxpayer money. It seems nearly inconceivable that anyone could keep a straight face while trying to justify spending money on many of the things in the list below.
At a time when the U.S. national debt is closing in on 14 trillion dollars, government waste just seems more out of control than ever. The following are 20 of the craziest things that the U.S. government is spending money on...."
Here are some of the worst:
"#2 The U.S. Department of Agriculture gave the University of New Hampshire $700,000 this year to study methane gas emissions from dairy cows. (Why, to outlaw cows?)
#3 $615,000 was given to the University of California at Santa Cruz to digitize photos, T-shirts and concert tickets belonging to the Grateful Dead. (Who cares about these drug crazed singers?)
#4 A professor at Stanford University received $239,100 to study how Americans use the Internet to find love. So far one of the key findings of this "research" is that the Internet is a safer and more discreet way to find same-sex partners. (Your tax dollars finding "love"? while your job is lost and home foreclosed)
#5 The National Science Foundation spent $216,000 to study whether or not politicians "gain or lose support by taking ambiguous positions." (Let them all lose)
#6 The National Institutes of Health spent approximately $442,340 to study the behavior of male prostitutes in Vietnam." (Why is Obama obsessed with sex?)"
Government obviously has too much money. Cut taxes and spending--stop deficits.
