$13 Billion in Iraq Aid Wasted Or Stolen, Ex-Investigator Says - washingtonpost.com

"(Salam) Adhoob said some of the investigations conducted by his agency and others uncovered 'ghost projects' that never existed or other instances where Iraqi and U.S. contractors did poor-quality work. In one case, $24.4 million was spent on an electricity project in Nineveh province but an oversight agency found that it 'existed only on paper.'"

Kinda like the government of the Constitution of the United States of (part of) America: It, too, only exists on paper.
