Lindsay Koshgarian, from the National Priorities Project at the Institute for Policy Studies, recently co-authored an updated “Tax Day Receipt” — a way of listing government expenditures as a grocery list.

And the Homeless agency support program costs each taxpayer one cent…way less than a single egg.
