Oh-oh. Wait till they start in on the military. You know...the $2000 socket wrench. Or the ones that always get me barking mad .... $11.3 million to study migration habits of fruit flies.

Don't forget the TURTLE TUNNEL......

The toad tunnel cost $14,000. Even California had more common sense. They only spent $14,000 on a toad tunnel.

$3.4 million of your taxpayer dollars going to be used on a turtle tunnel! Oh, wait. Hang on just a second. I apologize. I didn't finish reading the whole story. The wildlife crossing is only in the design stages. Oh. Hang on. Let me keep reading. $3.4 million for the design, for the design. So we're putting architects to work. For the design of the tunnel. Oh, here it is. It will require $6 million to be completed. So an unworking wildlife tunnel for turtles has cost you already $3.4 million and is going to be $6 million paid for by you.
