Where did all the money go?

Stamen Design, in its most recent project with the State of California, lets you explore the money breakdown. Like most of Stamen's work, at the base is an interactive map, but it is of course much more than that.

California Economic Recovery Portal - Stimulus Map:

"American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) funding is disseminated by the federal government directly to various entities within a state including state government entities, local government entities, local businesses, local non-profits and other organizations. Under 50 percent of Recovery funding is estimated to flow through state government entities."
