HAM, WATER ADDED, COOKED, FROZEN, SLICED, 2-LB

Wait, does this mean we spent 2.5 million dollars on 2 lb of ham? It couldn't be 2 lb containers of ham, half a million of them or something, could it?

Yeah. Maybe it could be. And then that makes it better? The govt buying 500,000 hams is better than only 250,000? WTF is the federal government going to do with HAM?!?!

They were supposed to be building BRIDGES and ROADS and WINDMILLS that last for decades!

We're not even spending OUR money. We're spending our grandkids into debt. BUYING FRAKKING HAM!

Ahh, but you are being LOGICAL and this IS our government we are talking about here, therefore it is a SAFE BET to say that 2.5 million was spent on ONE ham!

I was wondering that too — is this for multiples of these items? Or would that be noted on the pages drudge linked to?
