There’s only one terminal at the State College airport, and as I was sitting there waiting to board the plane, I happened to turn around and see three flags. Now, if you saw three flags in an airport, what do you think they would be?
Sure, there was Old Glory. And yes, there was the Pennsylvania state flag. So what do you think the third flag was? It was this flag.
This may be a Pennsylvania thing (Tom Ridge, you know). I did look in Dulles and Charleston, but saw no flags of any variety at either airport. But I doubt it.
Please explain:
- why the Department of Homeland Security needs its own flag
- why taxes should be allocated to produce God knows how many of these flags
And while you’re at it, did you know DHS had its own flag? Did you know that your taxes were used to make this flag?
I have no problem with tax money being used to make, say, American flags. Or tax money being used to make, say, military flags. Or state taxes used to make, say, state flags. But I do have a problem with taxes being used to make DHS flags. Or FBI flags (is there such a thing?) Or CIA flags (again, is there such a thing?)
Yet another of those good government bureaucrats spending your money.
