Yes it's amazing how many ways the government is wasting out money!
It would be interesting to list the many ways that it is doing that.
Social Security is running out of money or is out of money so what do they do?
Spend 700,000 on a weekend conference!

Hi Len:

BCN took a total of 8 weeks reviewing hundreds of these silly ( wasteful ) programs and  found billions of dollars being spent. Here's the kicker, they ( BCN ) made application for a $150,000 educational grant as part of the study to assist young college students to gain education into the filed of journalism and news gathering; they were denied.

Why ?

Because " news gathering and journalism" are not considered important fields for employment nor credible forms of education. Try to get a job in radio today ( or TV ) without a degree in Journalism and you can forget being hired.

More to follow...
