If you were wondering why the government seems to think it needs to put up signs on projects stating that this project is funded by the "American Recovery Act", you're not alone.
Just another dollar wasting pat on the back for our "law" makers.
""These are self-congratulatory signs; they're political signs. They're so that lawmakers can pat themselves on the back," he said. "But these signs cost money. Actually, when you add them all up, they cost a lot of money."
Some localities have objected to the signs, arguing that they would rather spend the money on more projects. But Mr. Gregg said one community in New Hampshire was told no sign, no money for their original project.
"We do enough self-congratulating around here. They shouldn't make the taxpayers pay for it," he said."
