Corruption and greed in the rip off that is the Columbia River Crossing.

The scum shilling this massive rip off that would have made Capone blush, are in it for the money.

We all know by now that this is nothing but a massive, manically expensive waste of money designed to bail out the essentially bankrupt TriMet organized crime ring.

We've heard the lies, the gross exaggerations, the denials of the truth.

Well, here's a little closer look at the efforts that should have resulted in indictment and imprisonment for the scum both behind this rip off and involved in it today.

Tens of millions wasted: and we're still wasting $4 million EACH month on a failed, rejected bridge design.

  "As reported in Willamette Week 2 years ago, DEA was the only applicant for the master planning contract and the contract escalated to $50 million. Then only 3 years later, DEA said they couldn’t finish the statement of work without another $45 million escalation. Then, once again in 2011 the cost grew once again to $105 million. That’s contact cost escalation of 525%."

No lie they won't tell.  No amount of OUR money they won't spend.
