A Republican sends over this taxpayer-funded newsletter that DC Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton sent to her constituents to inform them of the economic benefits the current stimulus bill would offer residents of the District of Columbia. Among the items listed:
Parks. Repair neighborhood parks owned by the National Park Service D.C. Golf Courses. Create private-public partnership to improve D.C.'s three golf courses Federal Buildings. Repair and rehabilitate high concentration of federal buildings, many located in D.C. People-friendly Mall. Create café table settings for lunch. Rehabilitate restrooms and install flush toilets. Develop a program for free jazz, string quartets and similar entertainment during lunch hours.
Just imagine how many jobs a a program for free jazz would create. And for those who still can't find jobs, the repair of neighborhood parks should ensure that the city's homeless have a real nice place to sleep.
