No one likes to pay more taxes, but everyone agrees some expenses are worth the investment.


Unfortunately, some expenses made at the state or federal level are very contrived. . What are some of the worst?

Probably all of the "pork" they give away.. I remember one time the State of Louisiana gave tax dollars to McKinley High's alumni fun or some shite like that, but if you include all the the "pork" given to all senators and reps on a federal and state level, to spend on stupid projects they use to pretty much get re-elected... Thats a whole hell of a lot of money.

section 8 housing, as the owner of some, the government paying me $932/mo for $40,000 homes is hilariously poor management on their part. Market rents for $932/mo get alot better home.

Personally, I prefer Lobster. But I guess if you are on welfare, that is not an option.
