Seriously, that’s what the U.S. Department of Agriculture has done:
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) says it is creating jobs by spending millions on snowmobiles, fire trucks, studying a “gluten-free mill,” and other local initiatives.
The federal agency announced $18.1 million in loans and grants last month, describing the projects as an “efficient way” to benefit taxpayers.
The spending includes over $150,000 for two snowmobile clubs in Vermont.
