Stimulus money-wasted

We can all pretty much agree at this point that almost 800$ billion was, um, totally wasted on stupid projects, unnecessary projects and projects that were not only meaningless, but dangerous. Read it at Washington Examiner. What a travesty these expenditures were:

And then there was fraud. At ten of the 15 homes visited, Department inspectors found examples in which "a contractor had installed a 125,000 BTU boiler, but had billed CEDA for a 200,000 BTU boiler costing an estimated $1,000. more." Another contractor "billed for almost four times the amount of drywall actually installed." And another "installed 12 light bulbs but had billed CEDA for 20." (The Department found that CEDA paid almost three times the retail price for each light bulb.) "Billing issues appeared to be pervasive," the report concludes.

Wasted. All wasted. On people like postal workers. Yowza.
