Uncle Sam Needs You To Facebook

Just when you think you've heard the most ridiculous way for our government to waste money it doesn't have, some bureaucrat comes up with this...
The Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs needs someone to run the Facebook page for the Department of the Interior and they’ll pay up to $115,000 a year.  That's $57.50 an hour plus all those great government employee benefits.  I wonder if you have to have a Masters Degree in Facebooking to apply.


But let's get serious.  Senator Rand Paul, R-KY., has proposed a five year plan for balancing the federal budget.  His plan calls for the elimination of the Departments of Commerce, Education, Energy, and Housing and Urban Development.  I suggest we add the Interior Department to that list.
