The city of Baltimore received over $1.8 billion from President Barack Obama’s stimulus law, including $467.1 million to invest in education and $26.5 million for crime prevention.
President Obama claimed last Tuesday that if the Republican-controlled Congress would implement his policies to make “massive investments in urban communities,” they could “make a difference right now” in the city, currently in upheaval following the death of Freddie Gray.
However, a Washington Free Beacon analysis found that the Obama administration and Democratically-controlled Congress did make a “massive” investment into Baltimore, appropriating $1,831,768,487 though the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), commonly known as the stimulus.

ReplyDeleteI would say that that was a very heavy investment and subsequently a huge waste of money. What positive results came about from this so-called "investment"? Or on the flip side just imagine how bad it would've been had the "investment" not have been made.
ReplyDeleteGot to love those democrats.
I could be wrong but I doubt it.
When will the people who are actually paying for this waste finally start to vote how "THEIR" money is being spent!
