Recovery.gov is named BACKWARDS, because it only highlights how quickly we are spiraling AWAY from economic stability and employment growth
Remember when it was reported decades ago that the United States Federal government was paying hundreds of dollars — each — for toilet seats and hammers?
Later, it was found that the high cost of seemingly mundane items had been engineered to mask the dollars truthfully spent on huge government waste, individuals treating their expense accounts like personal piggy banks, and pet projects that never would have passed muster if reviewed and vetted through proper channels.
Now we are spending millions on dozens of federal web sites that are designed to make us all feel better about… the millions of dollars being spent to grow the government.
But these are all turning out to be so untrustworthy that we would settle for mere ‘propaganda’ — at least with propaganda, much of what you are told is true. What happens when the information posted to these multi-million-dollar web sites is actually examined and cross-checked with known facts?
From CBN:
“The Web site listed $6.4 billion going to 440 congressional districts that don’t exist. Congress only has 435 real districts.The Franklin Center report also showed how Recovery.gov had the four American territories receiving stimulus money in their 23 congressional districts, when in fact they have zero districts.
In Washington D.C., there is just one congresswoman, but Recovery.gov shows the city has 12 congressional districts getting hefty amounts of stimulus funds.
In Arizona, the Web site has almost $35 million going to the state’s 15th and 86th districts — neither exist.”
Watch the report:
Years from now, we may find that all the millions wasted on these feel-good-but-don’t-check-the-math web sites are just a newer, more modern way to buy $400 toilet seats… although this time it’s plain to see — there really is a lot of shit passing through the center of this taxpayer-funded travesty.
