Tom Fahey reports in his Under the State House Dome column that New Hampshire is getting a big pile of money to administer any even bigger pile of money:
SAY THAT AGAIN: In the Department of Redundancy Department, the state will use $2 million in federal economic stimulus funds to expand the state Office of Economic Stimulus to watch over the spending of economic stimulus funds. The director of the office, to be appointed by the governor, will make a salary of up to $110,036 overseeing four other workers.
The Legislative Fiscal Committee approved establishment of the office, part of $36.5 million it accepted at a meeting last week.
Over 100-grand to oversee four employees and hand out money? Are they accepting resumes?
