Compared with the vast amounts wasted on welfare and warfare, $15 million is chicken feed. That’s how much the IRS plans to spend on a PR campaign to improve its image. Dan Mitchell discusses it here.

You might think that with the federal budget trillions in the red, the politicians and bureaucrats would at least stop further needless expenditures. (I’d include in that the First Family’s penchant for costly vacations.) But of course, they won’t. It’s not their money and why shouldn’t they spend all they can on things they want?
