At least $4 billion is allocated to expanding the police state and the war on drugs through Byrne grants, which even the Bush administration opposed, and the COPS program, both of which are corrupt and largely ineffective programs.

To help Big Brother keep a better eye on us and our children, $20 billion would go towards health information technology, which would create a national system of electronic medical records without adequate privacy protection. These records would instead be subject to the misnamed federal “medical privacy” rule, which allows government and state-favored special interests to see medical records at will. An additional $250 million is allocated for states to nationalize individual student data, expanding Federal control of education and eroding privacy.

Expanding the police state: Four billion dollars.
Electronic health records with no privacy protection: Twenty billion dollars.
After-school snacks: Seven hundred forty-six million dollars.
Census planning: One billion dollars.
State budget bailouts: Seventy-nine billion dollars.

Change we can believe in? Priceless.
