Stimulus
President Barack Obama signed a $787 billion economic stimulus shortly after he took office in 2009.
But since the ink of his signature hit the bill, it has been surrounded with question marks. Where is the money going? What is it going to?
Well many news agencies followed the trail, and reported excessive spending on programs not worth the time. Who should you believe?
To watch the dollar signs, I have filed multiple FOIAs for the exact contracts related to stimulus spending. Below, you will find the documents that have been received, and you decide — is it worth OUR money?
