Look at this BS. And this is on a local level. Imagine what goes on in Washington DC.

Some of the expense items for the past week paid by our local city government council.

$7,900,000 to improve the west library.

$156,775 to improve the sand on a local beach.

$120,000 for Bleach.

$59,680 for an inflatable boat.

$58,799 for scuba tanks.

$48,392 for a new swing set at the children's park.

$30,472 for a new golf course lawn mower.


What the fuck. $48,000 for a swing set. This I have to go and see.

What an abuse of the taxpayer's money.



swing sets arn't cheap - my wife's a teacher and the community here does fund raisers for swing sets - these are CHEAP ones for the poor kids in the middle of NOWHERE, and they run $20K
