Thought for The Next Two Weeks

So, political convention madness is now almost upon us, and I offer you a thought:

If you should view the multi-million dollar extravaganza of either major political party…or both…remember that about $132 million of taxpayers’ money (or, more likely, federal IOU’s) is being spent to support them — $32 million in the form of grants to the parties, and $100 million as homeland security subsidies.

Don’t you think there is something better that could be done with $132 million, rather than subsidizing two partisan pep rallies?
