Doesn't it feel good you worked hard and the government took your money to pay for this.

Studying Pig Manure: The EPA awarded a $141,450 grant to fund a study on swine manure.

Wine in China: The USDA spent $415,000 to serve fine wines in China. So, this Administration is literally borrowing money from China to buy wine for people in China.

Romance on the Web: $914,000 funding the Popular Romance Project to “explore the fascinating, often contradictory origins and influences of popular romance as told in novels.”

Million Dollar Bus Stop: A new bus stop cost taxpayers over a million dollars to build. Here’s the kicker: It doesn’t even protect people from the rain.

And of course we get to pay for a bunch of illegitimate babies because mommy and daddy have so much compassion they bring babies into poverty.
Since when didn't the government fund expenditures and studies based on nonsense? If people want to do something about it, then try to have the good sense to quit voting for congress people who come up with this stuff.

And NOT ONE thing you list do anything to support your allegation that "taxes on Americans have risen substantially"

So, did you actually have a point or just a nagging urge to make another baseless whine about Obama?
