Recovery.gov is the U.S. government’s official website to provide "easy access" to how and where the billions of taxpayer dollars from the stimulus act are going. Well, it lists where they are going but where exactly is the 36th congressional district of Virginia? Or the 17th congressional district? Or the 98th congressional district? Or the 00 congressional district? All total, Recovery.gov the lists $4,500,613 in taxpayer funds going into almost a dozen congressional districts that do not even exist in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Check out the site here.
The lesson here: Big government is not accountable government. It's just one of the many reasons I was one of the 17 Members of Congress to vote against every stimulus under both the Bush and Obama Administration.
