Your tax money at work

Comments

If you wonder how is your tax money being used, here is a great example:

So State Comptroller Alan Hevesi hit the jackpot on Sunday, when he revealed that 198 of New York State’s Level 3 (or high-risk) sex offenders are getting Viagra through Medicaid. Giving erection-inducing meds to people who may have sexually assaulted someone seems, well, dumb.

Now I know that someone might argue that you should not judge the system by anecdotal mistakes, but I think that this is a great example to what happens when you stop thinking about the tax money as belong to the tax payers…
