In 2010, the median household income in the US was $52,026.

To put this in a different light, for every $52,026 that government consumes to fund projects like this, it must destroy the annual income of one entire household. For every $1 million project it destroys the income of 5 households.

How many of these projects are essential to the safety and well being of our households and how many are just luxuries we can no longer afford? Far too many!

I think you mean almost 20 household incomes.
