Taxpayers for Common Sense

That's the name of a web site: Taxpayers for Common Sense

They describe themselves as: "...an independent and non-partisan voice for taxpayers working to increase transparency and expose and eliminate wasteful and corrupt subsidies, earmarks, and corporate welfare."

This is what they've found in the current omnibus bill:

"Taxpayers for Common Sense (TCS) has been going through the omnibus to pull together a total number of earmarks and dollar amount. TCS found 8,570 disclosed earmarks worth $7.7 billion." (See that full article here.)

Our tax dollars, oh wait...our children and grandchildren's tax dollars, will be paying that back.

Visit their web site here.
