In the United States, the biggest waste of taxpayer money is, by far, military spending. There is absolutely no excuse for it.
Second place would go to the subsidization of major industries (example: oil and gas, especially seeing as gas is poised to hit $4.00/gallon in some places and stay at that price pretty much forever).
Third place: bailouts of corporations and industries, especially major banks.
I agree.
And No-bid military contracts should be outlawed.
I think some of the problem with gas prices is because it's tied to speculation. I think gas is already $4.00/gal where I live...I'll find out tomorrow when I fill up.
