As per the WH press release, they act like it is a good thing, but shows how terrible and non-efficient big government is. They have states working on all these proposals, etc. How much money is being wasted on this through buerecratic red tape, etc.

But if you look at it, it talks about how in some states, they FINALLY have determined the developers they will be using, etc, some have only recently decided what groups will handle the money, don't even have developers picked.
