Here is an interesting note from Sims' web page:

Jointly released by the City of Seattle and King County

Seattle and King County are pleased over the receipt of $9,304,891 in federal McKinney Homeless Assistance funds for housing programs and support services for homeless people. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) made the announcement of awards on Tuesday, Nov. 20, 2001.....The $9.3 million leverages over $26 million in other funding resources (including local, federal, state and private fund sources).

Where, pray tell, is all this money going?
If all this assistance is actually going to the "homeless," how come all the homeless are not millionaires?

:

And, if this is just for Seattle, just think how much money is being thrown around elewhere!!!

I couldn't help but notice that too. Makes Seattle an even more "attractive" place in which to sleep under the freeway.
