Federal Spending- Wisconsin Spending

Went to USA gov spending, interesting for the spending from Wisconsin.

Here is link to 2007 spending for the state of Wisconsin.

Here's one from Madison, "Hyperion" , still not sure what $454,981 would be used for?

Here's one from David obeys district "LAUGH YOUR WAY AMERICA" for
$194,968. not sure what that was for?

Another from Madison - "GreenLeaf Market" for $99,859

Makes you kind of wonder how these earmarks get into the budget!

Spending by Wisconsin officials, the top five!

Wisconsin 2 (Tammy Baldwin) - $4,198,122,856
Wisconsin 5 (F. James Sensenbrenner Jr.) - $124,456,159
Wisconsin 4 (Gwen Moore) - $74,958,583
Wisconsin 7 (David R. Obey) - $49,976,671
Wisconsin 8 (Mark Green / Steve Kagen) - $31,734,996


Interesting to look at as I hold my 8% increase in our 2008 property tax bill.
$4600.00 doesn't go very far these days for property taxes.

Bend over , grab your ankles and kiss your hard earned money good bye!
