Last week, the story was about the Government helping to pay for Domino's Pizza to cram 6 times the amount of cheese down our throats as was previously on their pizza while at the same time using our tax dollars for Michelle Obama's Campaign against obesity.


Today's story reveals how the government wastes our money by providing $$$$$ to help curb Illegal Immigration in....SANCTUARY CITIES!


What a waste of tax dollars. Tax Dollars in Programs that effectively cancel each other out. Go Figure...

Yeah, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. And the sad part is, most Americans don't even see this. They don't even care what the gov't spends their hard-earned money on.

Too many people voice their opinions without paying ANY federal income tax, let alone the ridiculous amounts some of us pay when we need to be saving for our pension-less retirements. Nobody cares about spending money sanely, when they are spending Other People's Money!

And what does this have to do with government waste?

What is a waste is federal tax money going towards illegal aliens medical care, housing and education.

It was in response to the post that not enough Americans CARED about government waste. I am pointing out that few people care about wasting Other People's Money; if they are not contributing, it is not their money that is being wasted.

And of course federal tax money should never go to illegal aliens.

I assume you're being sarcastic? Because what the government should be doing is taking money (fining) sanctuary cities for harboring criminals; that is if the Federal Government really wanted to do something about this. But, instead they give away our money to cities who spend it on who knows what - probably to bus them to election sites or stage protests or acquire stolen social security numbers.

Just like the Federal Government hands out our money out of both of their fat hands; the right hand to fatten us up with cheese and the left hand doles out our money to tell us what to eat to keep us fit! These two programs, which cost us tax payers millions of dollars actually cancel each other out!
