Stimulus Money To Tax Cheats
In March, Citizens United released a report entitled “Where Did All That Stimulus Money Actually Go?” The report concluded that the staggering amounts of taxpayer funds spent in each Congressional District garnered so few positive results that it was a disgrace. Just today, it has been reported that more than $24 billion in stimulus money has been awarded to companies that owe $750 million in back taxes. President Obama forced Congress to rush the stimulus bill through the system without taking the time to build in adequate safeguards so things like this wouldn’t happen. In the end, the stimulus bill will go down in the history books as the quintessential boondoggle that has robbed the American taxpayer of precious treasure.
