Only in America A taxpayer view of government waste
A letter to The Journal excoriates federal and state officials for wasting taxpayer money. It cites a United States Department of Commerce mail packet marked NOT MAILED AT PUBLIC EXPENSE and POSTAGE PAID BY THE U S DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE as emblematic of officials’ detached view of public funds. The piece laments rising costs, stagnant income growth, and revenue sharing costs, arguing taxpayers pay for government while receiving little value.
