$1.8 billion and Obama last week was blaming Republicans for no investment in Baltimore. Nice try Barry. So what did we get for that $1.8 billion????
Quote: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.
According to Recovery.gov, one of Baltimore’s central ZIP codes, 21201, received the most stimulus funding in the city, a total of $837,955,866. The amount included funding for 276 awards, and the website reports that the spending had created 290 jobs in the fourth quarter in 2013.
Of this amount, $467.1 million went to education; $206.1 million to the environment; $24 million to “family”; $16.1 million to infrastructure; $15.2 million to transportation; $11.9 million to housing; and $3.1 million to job training.
ZIP code 21202 received $425,170,937, including a $136 million grant to “improve teaching and learning for students most at risk of failing to meet State academic achievement standards.”

Or built a steam generated electrical plant and just burned the money. At least there would have been a positive outcome.

If you were on the city council and you received $1.5 billion, would you just invest that money and live off the interest forever?
A never ending gift to the people of Baltimore.

Decades of the government trying to be the nanny state and in the process destroying the nuclear family by policy resulting in a feeling of zero personal responsibility since Uncle Sugar will take care of you. Leftist tax and regulatory policies driving businesses out of the city.

But the statistics do not support your theory. The vast majority who recieve government assisstance become tax paying citizens. It's a good investment.

Lots of money goes to products and services that are way over paid because it's the "GovMint" paying the tab. Other Monies get moved around and become "Lost" in the shuffle and usually wind up in pockets of "political friends". Some go to Family members of Smaller Government workers for "Summer Jobs" that should have gone to Programs that would hire Young People not related to politicians and Hacks.
Money set aside for Infrastructures going to Union Labor on a non compete Bid for more political favors. The list goes on and on. And Yes it happens with both Parties. Cronyism is alive and well with Taxpayers Money. We Need a lot of Accountability on spending, and Not just the Use it or Lose it so We get the same or More in the Next Round attitude.
