How Your Taxes Are Spent
California proves that states can be as wasteful with taxpayers' money as the federal government. Under a law passed by the state assembly an estimated 605,000  driver licenses were issued to illegal immigrants in California last year. Approximately 830,000 undocumented immigrants have applied for licenses. The increase in applicants is estimated to cost $141 million over the next three years.

After he raised eyebrows by repeating a memorized talking point over and over at the last Republican debate, Sen. Marco Rubio defended his odd performance and said he would keep doing it. Having made a poor showing in the New Hampshire primary he now admits "I did not do well" in the debate and tells supporters, "That will never happen again."

If Donald Trump should happen to win his bid to become president of the United States he may decide to pass up the White House and stay in his own place in Washington. Trump has spent $200 million to convert the Old Post Office Building six blocks away into a luxury hotel. It will have a 6,300 square foot suite -- the "Trump Townhouse" -- with a private entrance on Pennsylvania Avenue.
