USDA to spend $10.2M to test composting plans to cut fertilizer use | Eastern NC Now
Golden horseshoe award
The Golden Horseshoe is a weekly designation from Just The News intended to highlight egregious examples of wasteful taxpayer spending by the government. The award is named for the horseshoe-shaped toilet seats for military airplanes that cost the Pentagon a whopping $640 each back in the 1980s.
This week's Golden Horseshoe is awarded to the Department of Agriculture for spending $10.2 million on a new pilot program for the generation of compost to discourage the use of fertilizer while issuing $250 million in grants to increase production of fertilizer domestically.
Politicians need to find a way to shovel up all the manure they spread with their lies and get it to the farmers, then there would be plenty of fertilizer for all.
