Yesterday I blogged about the latest examples of wasteful spending of the so-called “stimulus” money, as detailed in a list produced by Sens. John McCain (R-AZ) and Tom Coburn (R-OK). The list includes $253,000 for NC State to bolster its insect program.

Carolina Journal’s Anthony Greco looked into the insect project, as well as other North Carolina projects that made the list. He reports on the projects — including the new bug drawers — here.
