Assignment #4 cBurt

"States and Cities in Scramble for Stimulus Cash" was posted in the New York Times and was written by Monica Davey. She is speaking to everyone who will be affected by the stimulus package that Obama is producing. The projects that Obama is making will make jobs for people, however they will also cost the American people a lot of money. The money will have to be quickly spent, which means more money has to be coughed up by the American people at a faster rate.

Some states are worried that they will not get money for education because there are no deficits in their money pools. This is not fair because, even though they have done well thus far, there will be no more educational aid in these specific states.
