Your tax dollars

In an effort to reduce casualties the United States Air Force has decided against heavy armour plating in favor of speed. At a cost of $75,000 per vehicle the modifications to bring this vehicle into the 21st century could be considered "measly." What was once known simply as a HUMVEE is now a thoroughly modern war fighting machine. The USAF ordered 20,000 of these with hopes to purchase more. When asked about the questionable decision to make such a purchase in these times of fiscal chaos, a supposed government official replied; "don't hate the player, hate the game."

The Tennessee Pork Report combines elements of two perennial CAGW publications, the Congressional Pig Book and Prime Cuts, with TCPR’s knowledge of the Tennessee state budget. The report exposes many areas in the state budget where wasteful spending can be eliminated, providing a valuable resource to legislators and taxpayers.

The Tennessee Pork Report uncovers over $240 million in waste and misuse of taxpayers’ money by the Tennessee State Government, from throwing a $700,000 party for the National Conference of State Legislatures to providing $784,205 in TennCare benefits to dead people and $436,590 in subsidies to golf courses.

Copies of the report will be distributed at the press conference. The report will also be available online at www.tennesseepolicy.org and www.cagw.org.

Basically, vote against any raising of taxes because the money will go to useless crap.
