The group Citizens Against Government Waste is out with their annual report on waste, this time for 2010, and Alabama ranks 14th...pretty high considering the population.
Find out how your state ranks here.
Alabama's rank is two spots worse than the previous year, so despite all of the talk of cutting government waste by the state's congressional delegation, they're finding more and more pork to send home. $51.45 per capita in the 2010 year,according to the report.
