Liberals are stupid enough to think the gravy train never ends. They just assume a static environment where they can keep robbing people AND maintaining the illusion of prosperity. i will never understand it
Colorado is set to receive $13.4 billion from the federal government in fiscal year 2025-26 — about 30% of the state's $40 billion annual budget.The bulk — 74% — is earmarked for health care and related safety net programs. It's unclear how many of these are impacted by the order.In 2024, Denver Health, the city's safety net hospital, received $89 million in federal grant funding.
"Denying critical funding to programs that support the medical and social needs of our patients will have direct impacts on the health and well-being of Coloradans across the state," Denver Health spokesperson Dane Roper said in a statement.
Umm, but apparently spending 10 billion a year on health care and social needs isn't an issue?.
How about this -
In one specific example, the Regional Transportation District said it received $150 million from the Federal Transit Administration to help complete the East Colfax rapid transit line.
Total funding received for the Colfax BRT project is approximately $280 million, with the local match consisting of $88 million of Denver funds, $28.4 million through the DRCOG process, and $14 million in Aurora funding.
'RTD, as the direct recipient of federal funds, is working in coordination with Denver and Aurora to implement the East Colfax BRT project and deliver BRT service along the 9.9-mile Colfax Avenue corridor that extends from Denver Union Station to Colfax Station near I-225 in Aurora, where the BRT service would connect to the R Line light rail corridor.'
$280 million for a 9.9 mile bus route (with both terminals already built and in use). ?!?!?!
Liberals are more pissed that when the money dries up, people will be after their heads when they realize just how much cash is wasted on useless bullshit. Ang guess how much of the "medical and social" needs are going to criminals, illegals, etc? I can guarantee more money is being pissed away on illegals than the natives
