This is the equivalent to the "government" on EBT cards imo and a slap in the face of we Americans trying to put food on our tables by a honest day's work. Our tax dollars goes to feed them muffins and cookies????


As the U.S. government grapples to find ways to trim the bloated federal deficit, a new report suggests officials might start with cutting out $16 muffins and $10 cookies.

.."We found the Department (of Justice) spent $16 on each of the 250 muffins served at an August 2009 legal conference in Washington," said a DOJ Office of Inspector General report released on Tuesday.
