Today's Winner

sometimes it is hard to comprehend just how badly screwed up things have become. And then, to realize that we have helped, via taxes, to finance the screwing-up, is to pour salt in the wounds still being opened.
the link above, in the title here, deals with the use of taxpayer dollars to finance lawsuits against the nation by all sorts of little tinpot fascisti, tree-huggers prominent among them.
But there is more, far more.
a hat tip on this to an article on Richard Ferndandez' great "Belmont Club' section of Pajamas Media, an article that gets into the matter of bureaucracy in general and federal government bureaucracy in particular, and dovetails that with the continuing reverberations from the Ruling Class essay that has gone viral. And a second hat tip to a poster whose contribution included a listing of some of the damage done by bureaucracies in general, not just at the federal level. Follow those links, and the discussion under the original posting, and wonder if the Washington's of the day could ever forgive us.
