Stimulus Package By State

Stimulus Package By State (please try not to throw up)
Just check out some of the stuff in this package – with the state of the economy does California really need “vintage” lightposts and trees etc… Disgusting - the more you read, the more disgusted you will get.

Click on your state to see some of the projects included in this bill.I found it to be very interesting and informative. Also you can see that a lot of city's & towns are not listed.I wonder if the leaders of the missing city's and towns are just "not on the ball" so to speak and did not submit a wish list?

what are the chances of getting Maryland to send some the money to the eastern shore?

Delaware request look sensible, but the water main is 30 miles long at a million dollars a mile,huh.

I hope that they are not going to let the illegal workers in America swoop down on all these construction jobs. If I remember correctly that part was taken out of the Bill.

RK rightly noticed that the money is only going to Baltimore and Annapolis

Baltimore and Annapolis huh? It's good to see that they still look at the State as a whole these days...

BUT WAIT A MINUTE!!!!!!

I thought good old Frankie Krapoville was making sure it came here to the Eastern Shore??????

It shouldnt be going anywhere.

He certainly didnt forget where he came from did he. They will never be able to track this money. What a disaster.

RK slim to none and none just left. 2 out of the 3 largest amounts of projects in Pelosi's and President Obama's states Hmmmmm thats a surprise

And they think the people in West Virginia are that bright.

So, are Baltimore and Annapolis the only Maryland cities that requested money. With Salisbury's aging infrasturcture and all of the repairs that we have been putting off our city should have been a good candidate.

anonymous 10:43, why don't you ask your representative in Congress Frank Krapovil?

Anonymous said...

It's all going to the big cities/ big government. we will get the "trickle down" money; after they have taken their "Administrative Costs". Can anyone here say "Five Dollar Footlongs"?

I read somewhere Delaware was getting 800 million. When you look at this chart it shows less then 100 jobs. This is going to help all those without a job how?

I dont even want to start on the projects in Maryland. Why bother it seems that only Balitmore and Annapolis are getting anything.
