Government Waste in San Fran

How much does it cost to pour concrete?

In San Francisco they are going to spend $100,000 per FOOT! Can you believe that taxpayers are going to have to spend $1 million for a 10 foot wheelchair ramp. Here's the story.


I am not bashing those in wheelchairs but when you read the article and see the extreme costs simple advisors are being paid out of this, you will see why government is great at waste.

The way I see it, as long as we continue giving government a blank check, the more they will waste. Multiply this little expenditure in San Fran by 1000's and you will see why we need to put a cap on spending in our federal government.

The difficulty will be in trying to convince all of the states to repeal the income tax amendment to our Constitution. This is why we need to continue our grassroots' effort in every state until we have at least 2/3's of the voters in each state signed on to the FairTax plan.

There is video on this Squidoo lens that is worth watching (Look for the Newt Gingrich video).
