Where did the 111 million dollars go, I want to know

One thing I know, it did not go to sick kids or to check on tainted toys. This is profit for just 1 year folks.

Sens. Byron Dorgan , D-N.D., and Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., said the State Department and Postal Service quietly gouged U.S. citizens over the government's $97 passport fees, even as new anti-terrorism laws require more travelers to carry passports. They are asking the Bush administration for an accounting of where the passport profits go.

Over the past year, as the government issued nearly 14 million new passports, it collected at least $111.4 million more in passport fees than its stated costs, according to calculations by The Associated Press based on figures from State Department and congressional investigators.

Gerald Ford did a lot for this country while Nixon rattled around the WH bunker, and the country still functioned under the
constitution and the rule of law, well, well, what a difference between then and now.
