Assignment #4 S. Lewis

This article entitled "States and Cities in Scramble For Stimulus Cash" was written by Monica Dabel of the New York times. This was written to inform individuals that this is not going to be an easy plan to implement. It shows the different ideas and methods that different states want to use the money for.

I beleive this article is directed towards the citizens and taxpayers. I believe Davey is trying to let people know that these dollars WILL be spent, but the taxpayers need to get involved, to make sure this money is spent well.

The Argument I got from this article is that some states may need it more than others, but we as taxpayers need to make sure that certain states do not use their political power to over power a plan that was push through to help the U.S.
