bytor2112 Posted November 17, 2009 Report Posted November 17, 2009 Created or saved....and made up!!!!! From ABC.....Here's a stimulus success story: In Arizona's 15th congressional district, 30 jobs have been saved or created with just $761,420 in federal stimulus spending. At least that's what the Web site set up by the Obama administration to track the $787 billion stimulus says.ShareDiscrepancies on government web site call into question stimulus spending.There's one problem, though: There is no 15th congressional district in Arizona; the state has only eight districts.

talisyn Posted November 17, 2009 Report Posted November 17, 2009 And this is why colleges cost so much, to graduate people who can't count? Quote

talisyn Posted November 17, 2009 Report Posted November 17, 2009 The people running the website can now buy lots of stuff to stimulate the economy Quote

Just_A_Guy Posted November 17, 2009 Report Posted November 17, 2009 I see a correlation here.15 Obama-created districts - 8 "real" districts = 7 districts.57 Obama-created states - 50 "real" states = 7 states.Coincidence? I think not!!!!! Note that there are also 7 letters in our President's middle name, Hussein . . . Quote
talisyn Posted November 17, 2009 Report Posted November 17, 2009 Our president is sneakily taking over the world for the USA. People don't notice because they're too busy laughing at the math 'blunders', but they haven't realized we have over 1/2 of Mexico and soon will have all of Canada (except Quebec). Quote

Moksha Posted November 18, 2009 Report Posted November 18, 2009 This stimulus idea of giving out money to contractors seems inherently flawed and subject to greedy abuse. The depression era Public Works Administration route would create more jobs while at the same time maintaining tighter oversight. As far as this reporting goes however, the article says it is a mass accumulation of reports. Reports from people who do not know their Congressional District number like many of us. Quote

The money should just be returned to the taxpayer....they won't waste it. $18 miilion dollar website???? C'mon, are you kidding me! How many people could that money have helped????????? Waste and government ineptitude.....it never changes. To be fair, Obama didn't invent waste...but he has learned very quickly. Edited November 18, 2009 by bytor2112 Quote
