It's their money to do it.

That's our money they are spending it on.

You have a choice if you want to support private excess.

You are smarter than this.

He's trolling...

I can't be sure, but I think Delhommy is in the "Taxes are the Governments money not your own" or some such.

So you're saying private execs don't frivolously spend taxpayer money?

No, I'm in the "private industry acts just as moronic with money as the government when it gets big and bureaucratic enough" camp.

But let's all continue with our mindless "Private GOOD!!!! Government BAD!!!! Fire BURN!!!" rant. Nuanced approaches be damned.

How about instead of going off the deep end with your liberal trolling, we just try to have some responsibility/accountability in gov't spending?

Don't bother Delhommey. He's posing for his painting right now.

Im guessing that you voted against the taxpayers paying for a baseball stadium in Wilmington?

If we're not willing to do it with our tax dollars being wasted by the private sector, how are we going to do it in the public?

Both need to be addressed, but I'd be more concerned with the billions wasted on graft and stupid projects in the defense industry than the handfuls of chicken feed going to a few portraits.

These are the meaningless distractions they want you to pay attention to.

And I nor anyone else in this thread said otherwise... The portrait thing is just an egregious and very visible example of govt waste...

There absolutely should be more and better accountability at all levels including congressional spending...

Has anyone argued differently?
