City of Trenton Tragically Wastes Tax Payer Money on Sucky One-Color Print T-Shirts

...Oh Yeah, There is Also Something About an Alleged "Kickback Scheme"

The city of Trenton NJ paid almost $17,000 for the ugly shirts pictured to the right. To be sure, they would claim that they received a lot of shirts for that money. Who cares? They are boring and ugly, and do a poor job of promoting the program because people don't like to wear crappy stuff. Of course, you know that I am going to say that if they printed the shirts digitally on a Direct to Garment printer, that they could have printed many shades of green or even a thousand different colors, and still kept their price down. Maybe not as cheap as what they paid, but the shirts would have been far more attractive and kept peoples' attention. People like to wear nice stuff, so the Direct-to-Garment shirts would be worn more, thus giving the program more exposure.

But what am I talking about? Trenton should trust that their politicians know how to efficiently market their "Litter March", just like they know how to run their city. I mean, it's not like there's some weird scandal surrounding the T-shirt contract.
