This is fabulous. The DC government is actually scamming ITSELF now. An investigation by WTOP radio reveals the DC Department of Public Works has been overcharging OTHER city agencies by tens of thousands of dollars for vehicle repairs and equipment. According to this report, DPW in one case charged another agency $6,000 to fix an air conditioner and $500 to change a fuse. Sounds like the Pentagon. (Remember $500 toilet seats?)
