This is How a Lot of Federal Grant Money is Grafted

After working for years in several city governments, I have see that this is basically how the recipients of Federal grant money contracted out by cities siphon off most of the money.

Most cites don't bother to scrutinize the grant contractors books, as long as the contractor can provide an invoice, it is legit as far as the city is concerned.
