Want to see what cities all around the country are salivating to spend your taxpayer money on once the spendulus bill is signed into law? My favorite is the Boulder, CO request for $6m to convert 60 hybrid vehicles to plugins… zero jobs created and at a cost of $100,000 per car.
StimulusWatch.org was built to help the new administration keep its pledge to invest stimulus money smartly, and to hold public officials to account for the taxpayer money they spend. We do this by allowing you, citizens around the country with local knowledge about the proposed “shovel-ready” projects in your city, to find, discuss and rate those projects.
