White House: What Does #40dollars Mean to You?

The White House says it’s been flooded with responses to the question it posed Wednesday: “What does $40 mean to you?” - Michelle Malkin

Consider this:

★  Forty dollars could be given back to almost 14 million taxpayers for what went up in carbon neutral smoke on Solyndra.

★  Forty dollars could have been sent to almost 21 million people for what was spent on the stimulus. That’s a lot of “Friday Family Pizza Nights” that could have been “saved or created.”

★  Forty dollars is the “investment” of 6,250 taxpayers in each Chevy Volt.

★  It took 2,500 taxpayers unwittingly shelling out $40 each just to pay for a separate flight to Hawaii.
