Subcontractors say they’re owed millions, face financial ruin, after helping build Obama Presidential Center

But now, some of the very subcontractors who helped build the 19.3-acre campus on Chicago’s South Side say they are facing financial ruin!
Assuming this is even an accurate account, the beef the subcontractors have is with the contractors, not with Obama. The Obama people might hire the contractors, but the contractors hire and pay the subcontractors. If the contractors rip off the subcontractors, the subcontractors need to sue the contractors.

Can't expect a tRumpling to handle a complex idea like that.
 
The Obama Presidential Center was billed as a lasting legacy to former President Barack Obama, and its construction was touted as an ambitious model built with aggressive goals for minority-owned and local businesses.

But now, some of the very subcontractors who helped build the 19.3-acre campus on Chicago’s South Side say they are facing financial ruin as they race to recover millions of dollars they claim remain unpaid ahead of the center's grand opening Friday. Overall construction costs were reported to be $830 million in 2021, and have likely climbed past the $1 billion mark.



Will the left slam Obama for not paying
So much for Obama's shrine to his own ego.
 
Because trump was the one in charge of hiring and paying the people he stiffed.

Real estate development was his business, in case you've forgotten.

Obama hired a contractor to handle all that.

See how that works, Jethro?

Pretty simple, really.
Lie. Synthesis. Stop making shit up.
 
The General Contractor and construction management company are responsible for paying subcontractors.
This part is true.
The Obama Foundation paid the GC a pre-agreed upon price.
No single contractor.
Once that contract was signed, the foundation doesn't owe anyone squat.
Yes it does. It owes it the moment that contract is signed.
This is an issue between the GC and the subs, something that occurs with any and every large construction project.
Multiple contractors. Not just subs.
But because Obama's name is attached to it, the lowlife MAGA scum is obviously going to do whatever it can to try and drag him down to their level and the sub-sewer level of their own political leader.
MAGA isn't a person, Stooge. Trump is a successful real-estate developer. Obama is not.
It will all be resolved in court.

Much ado about nothing.
So you have no problem with Obama's Shrine to his own ego stiffing the very people he promised to 'help'.

Like Diogenes said, Democrats don't care.

"Democrats don't care."
 
You don't really own that mossberg, do you.

There are cheaper ways.

Grab a nice sharp knife. And remember, down not across.
I didn't order you to post to me.

Sit down and shut the fuck up until I tell you to post.

You are one dumb cunt - obey and shut up.
