Top 10 Stimulus Projects To Remember
Posted on 10.29.09 by Danny Glover @ 11:06 am

Senate Republicans compiled the list, complete with links to the stories about the projects. But anyone with a lick of common sense, regardless of party or political philosophy, should be offended to learn that our government wastes money on foolishness like this:

10) $30 million for a spring-training baseball complex
9) $3.4 million for a turtle tunnel in Florida
8) $380,000 to spay and neuter pets in Wichita, Kan.
7) $500,000 to study “social networks like Facebook”
6) $6 million for a snow-making facility in Duluth, Minn., the 15th snowiest city in the country
5) $2.3 million for bug research in Connecticut
4) $1 million to renovate the Sunset Strip
3) $219,000 to study the sex lives of female college freshmen
2) $4,200-$5,500 tax credit for purchasing golf carts

And the No. 1 stimulus project that Americans should remember the next time they go to the polls is … $300,000 for mapping radioactive rabbit feces.

Don’t you feel so much better knowing the government takes your hard-earned money and invests it in projects as essential to a sound economy as radioactive rabbit feces?
