Quote:yes but it is still localized but also not all of it comes from washington. Some does. Some comes form state taxes or sales tax.

I can only speak to here locally I'm not going to pretend to know how it is nation wide but about 4 years ago I remember in Flagler county they built sidewalks that literally totaled 1 million dollars per mile. But no one really cared because it was 80% paid for by federal development grants. Now if it was Flagler county paying for the sidewalks how much do you think per mile it would've cost?
