This seems to be another ongoing trend of this administration: undercut the implementation of laws by kneecapping them. This is exactly what they are trying to do with the ACA as well.

Reporter Ken Klippenstein has obtained a copy of the contract between Whitefish and the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA), and the details paint an even more egregious picture. Whitefish reportedly is charging $300 an hour for a subcontracted lineman; $462 an hour for a subcontracted supervisor; and $400 per worker per day for food and housing. The contract also shields Whitefish from legal liability if they screw up the job, and prevents government authorities from auditing the company, according to Klippenstein.

I liked this response, because it’s much more insidious than temp jobs.
