Waste and abuse at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

Breaking news: the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau wastes piles of taxpayer money on ludicrous nonsense, just like every other organ of our bloated government.

Read the whole thing, but here's a couple of highlights:

$479,354 for sign language translation services for two “entry level employees.”

Starting salaries at the agency exceeded Office of Personnel Management standards by up to 90 percent.  Judicial Watch adds that “a dozen new hires take home more than $225,000 a year, while a student intern was paid $51,620 ‘through completion of education & study.’”
