Received this in an e-mail - no attribution to any author and I think I’ve seen it before - but I’ll pass it along - there is truth in it:

The TCS Wastebasket
Congress Needs to Take On Cost Overruns — Too often, the lawmakers can’t agree on where there is waste in government.

I can’t imagine that Brunswick County NC cannot find another piece of property for their new senior center. With all the concern about obese couch potato kids here is Mike McIntyre handing out his bogus big checks using taxpayer’s money to do it.
