More Mystery Money

 

Watchdog.org reports that some 375 million "Recovery" dollars were dispersed to 170 Zip codes that do not exist.  The government naturally, objects.  But this runs along the vein of the billions being send to congressional districts that do not exist.

So here's a question.  Are New Hampshire zip codes 07211 and 87287, recipients of $32,500.00 and $14,000 stimulus dollars respectively, in congressional district '00?'

Perhaps congressional district 00 candidate Grant Bosse can look into this for us.   According to the feds they also created one job.  My guess is the are tasked with spending the $46,500.00.

All kidding aside, when you have a government that builds slush funds, these kinds of things do matter.  Billions go missing from DC under the best of circumstances.  This is hardly the best of circumstances.
