The $300 million Whitefish contract to make repairs in Puerto Rico has some interesting things in that contract. First there was no bidding, second it states “in no event shall (government bodies) have the right to audit or review the cost and profit elements.” Wow. $332.41 per person for accommodations “each day” and $79.82 for food “each day.” Who allowed this contract?
