The lack of association with full-mouth X-rays led one expert to question the connection.

"They found a small risk (from) a pair of bitewings, but not a full mouth series, which is multiple bitewings. That inconsistency is impossible to understand to me," said Dr. Alan Lurie, president of the American Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology.

Well, I won't research numbers for you (if you really wanted them you would have dug out numbers to support your point and proudly posted them), but consider that much of that 25%of GDP goes either to keeping people alive at home (Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid) to trying to make people dead overseas. And you can call them "Entitlements" as you wish, but Social Security and Medicare are insurance that workers pay for with every paycheck. I will not argue that we are spending way too much killing people overseas, but also note that much of the waste there was brought to you by private industry (hint: google Blackwater)

The Big Dig in Boston was not a Federal Project. The substandard materials that were used were substituted by private industries attempting to rip off the government. (in the name of maximizing profits).(hint: google Big Dig)
The cost overruns on the F35 were from Lockheed Martin, the private industry tasked with developing the aircraft.
