Your Tax Dollars At Work

Want to know where all that "stimulus" money is going? Surf over to recovery.gov and check out your state. Southern Man did so and found that the feds have apparently spent about $19 million dollars and created fifteen (!) jobs in nine "congressional districts" that don't actually exist in his state. Southern Man would happily have taken his cut and created one more ($1.3 million is more than enough to endow a professorship at his university) but did not have the foresight to live in a fictitious district.

Sure, it's probably just data entry errors and less than twenty million is chump change to the government, but let this be another reminder that these are the folks who want to manage your health care.
