Shoddy U.S. embassy a mess

The government can't even build a building correctly, on time, and on budget. Read this amazing article about the fire hazard, shoddy work, etc. at the new monster-size embassy in Iraq that you and I paid for. Amazing.

Good news just in time for Christmas

Don't you just love it when the government wastes your money? They've already wasted billions trying to "rebuild" a country cobbled together by the British after World War I. Now we're wasting billions in another nation-building venture. Read the article here.

That's funny, I don't see foreign wars, nation-building, and intervening in the internal affairs of other nations in my copy of the Constitution. And I don't see anything about being the world's policeman.

Clueless government at it again

Just imagine the uproar in Washington, D.C. if a private company lost so much of our money or private property. Yet when the government does it, what are we going to do? Lawsuit? I think not. Just another amazing waste of taxpayer dollars. Read the short article here.

Government can't get refrigeration right

The government is inefficient in many ways, and also very wasteful. It's not their money they're wasting, so what's the big deal (to them)? In this amazing article, they can't even refrigerate vaccines correctly. Don't bother with the vaccines anyway. Your research will lead you to the fact that we're trading relatively mild childhood diseases for autoimmune diseases (like multitple sclerosis) later in life.

Why is America going broke?

America is in a severe financial crisis, no matter what some of these rah-rah bull market cheerleaders say. In this great article by Robert Murphy that appeared in The Freeman: Ideas on Liberty back in April, he writes about all the waste and corruption ("corporate welfare") in government.

Why is the government in the railroad business? AMTRAK loses millions every year. Who bails it out? You and me with our tax dollars. Why does the Small Business Administration lend money to giant corporations? Wasn't it created to help the "little guy?"

Hopefully the article will make you angry. There's only one person currently running for president who will step up and challenge Congress on this madness. Yes, that liberty loving Congressman from Texas, Ron Paul.

Typical government project

From the wasteful subsidies given to railroads in the 1800's to museums today that never get off the drawing board, governments love to spend someone else's money. That's why I love the private sector - they spend their own money.
Read this amazing article on how the state of New York wasted $3 million on a proposed museum. Disgraceful.
