I think it's more like 113 billion according to CBO.
The federal govt is the single most inefficient mechanism in the country at doing everything. I’ve seen a lifetime of it.
If you were to reallocate that money back to the people who actually paid those taxes, it equates to $5,625 per check. There were 160 million checks issued in the first round of stimulus checks.
Dude 900 billion just sitting there. Schools closed but 68 billion allocated and they have spent 4.4 billion of it. Not spent, allocated to the States. Just sitting there gathering dust. And now they want more, more, more.
Mark my words that money will disappear and later somewhere down the road they’ll claim fraud. In the meantime some politicians will be lining their greasy ass pockets with it.
Or some state will use it for some other purpose
True, but the NCAA under Emmert is not too far behind them. Just the fact that he still has a job with them after the Shapiro debacle is enough to give them honorable mention at the very least.
Just amazes me how stupid our citizens are. You NEVER hear 1 word about the previous money only the need for more. I'm not saying not to provide another check or not to extend unemployment money but the crap in these bills is a waste. Asking for more for schools is criminal to me. You also never hear about telling States to open the hell up for business!
I was responding to Cash when he was talking about inefficiency of the government at everything they do. The NCAA is pretty close to them for their inefficiency at everything they do and was the first thing that popped in my head when I read his post. Was not my attention to hijack a good thread, HJ.
