There’s more proof that the administration is high on soda taxes as a way to curb obesity and fund healthcare reform. Two pro-free-market groups have discovered a $1 million stimulus grant to the University of Illinois to fund a study of the relationship between fat taxes and food consumption, diet quality, and obesity. Of concern is that the study results might be preordained.

A self-replicating, rapacious monster. I wonder if it will turn the world into grey goo.

Political statement, fulfilled campaign promise, and job stimulus?  What a win for Obama!

It looks like the administration has managed to combine the closure of Guantanamo with pork for Illinois.  Supposedly the re-opening of the prison would create 3,000 jobs Obama’s favorite state.  Way to go, guys…

Hopefully the law of unintended consequences won’t strike again.  And again, and again.

The number one new job created by the stimulus?

Waiting in line for “Obama money”:

$219,000 to study the sex lives of female college freshmen?

I know some guys who’d do that for free– might even pay you for the privilege.

You wouldn’t let me stand up and make the simplistic claim that these million jobs were saved at a cost of $787,000 per job without challenging the details of my accounting, would you? Surely, reality is more complex.
