Nice, when will people playing with taxpayer money ever be responsible. I like this move, needs to happen everywhere to wake people up. Government employees and officials seem to think its like free money to do with as they please.

Next we need to relocate all prisons and military sites along the borders, this will save tax dollars, less places to cross, and prisons will be even more accessible.

Give the Coast Guard what they need to eliminate the smugglers game with smuggling people and drugs along the ocean/US territory.

Surprise,surprise. corruption in city politics?

[Miss America]

Now maybe this office can shed its perception as a free hand out for developer friends of city officials, and actually get to helping people!

The money for these programs is supposed to go to buying first homes and repairing homes for low income and elderly people. Good luck straightening that mess out!

I don't think there is a single agency in Miami-Dade county that is not corrupt and/or incompetent.

No wonder there are alot of homeless running loose in Downtown Miami.

Miami need to seriously clean up it's act. Mainly the streets. They are unfortunate but they are also an eyesore and dangerous to the growing community. They are not allowing Miami to blossom into the beautiful city that it can and is trying to be.

It's about time the U.S. Government took control of the Miami-Dade County's housing agency over from the Banana Republic of Miami-Dade. The Agency should be run by Americans, not foreign nationals masquerading as citizens. I moved from Miami, back to the United States, three years ago…

El gobierno no tiene ninguna derecha de hacer esto.¿De dónde ahora conseguiré mis rentabilidades?¡Ésta es América!¡Tierra del libre!

[Banana Repulica]

Wow! The Banana Republic is at it again. Miami is a joke. But what do you expect from the Cubans. Castro was smart to let those go. And the tax payers of Miami are the loosers.

[CaptAmerica]

[Reality]

They have just added a whole new layer of corruption.

[Clean House]

[jxrey]

[crooks gone wild]

This story is terrible! What was wrong with the Housing Authority? What have they not done? What do the FEDS intend to do? Why did this happen? Who wrote this story? All of the basics of a story have been left out. BAD JOB!

[Jose]

The Feds goofed because they should have taken over the entire county.

I don't think the office of the school superintendent for Dade County is corrupt. All other agencies may be so.
