   Typical Breitbart "secret":   
      
   	American Taxpayers Subsidize a Service They Don't Use   
      
   Oh, no!  Reliable reports say that there are over NINE HUNDRED miles   
   of federally subsidized Interstate highways in Wyoming.  Yet the   
   population of Wyoming is only 500,000, which means that 99.7% of   
   Americans DO NOT LIVE in Wyoming, and DO NOT USE those roads.  The   
   average mile of Interstate highway costs $20 million, so building   
   those roads squandered almost TWO BILLION DOLLARS of our money.   
      
   I want my money back, and I want it NOW.
