here’s a page that will get you fired up and cranky for sure. at least it got me fired up and cranky.
it’s the national priorities project. there you can, for instance, find out how your tax dollars could be better spent, either nationally or in your area. ever wondered how many cops could get put on the street in your state if bush didn’t waste so much money on “star wars” missile defenses? if so, this is your place.
maybe you are completely happy with the way that the government is collecting and spending your tax dollars. if you are, then don’t bother clicking. but i have a feeling that, no matter what your political persuasion is, you’d be happier if your money was spent more wisely.
and anyway, who the hell is happy with the government? certainly no one i know, republican, democrat, or otherwise.
