Hey! Get your mind out of the gutter. I am talking about those "stimulus plans" that politicians claim are necessary. Do you remember that saying "a politician and our money are soon parted"? Let's examine how those fools and our tax dollars were parted.
$866,000. To find out how to control flies in stables.
I thought that's what tails are for. They have been swatting flies off their asses for centuries.
$4,417453. For wool research in Montana, and Wyoming.
How about making sweaters, they're freezing there!
$95 million researching the uses for wood.
I thought they figured that out years ago. No new products were developed. I guess they can make ventriloquist dummies with the leftovers.
$951,500 for street lights in Detroit.
With all the boarded up foreclosures the addicts need lights to see which houses sell crack at night.
$476,000 for a museum to teach children how to fly.
How about teaching adults how to fly. Remember the Northwest pilots who flew 1 and 1/2 hours past the airport before realizing it.
$465 million for a F-136 jet engine.
CBS news claimed "it was not necessary and not affordable". How could an engine not be necessary for a jet? Cause it already had one that worked!
You know I enjoy being stimulated as much as the next person (maybe more), but only a politician could ruin a wet dream.
