The $47 million in "federal money" for the street car system? Not so -- actually it's taxpayer dollars taken from them for this wasteful project; it will cost an additional $20-25 million more (at least) to complete the project, and about $6 million of that amount has already been spent before a single shovel of dirt has been moved. And the numbers of jobs projected to be created by this gimmick -- a figment of political imagination.
The TARP money for Auburn Ave? More wasted taxpayer dollars.
Judging by prior (failed) experiments of this sort, it will be a fiscal sinkhole that will lose money from day one.
