I wonder whether there’s any money earmarked for a study on whether it’s better to close the barn door before or after the horse runs away.

Yawn. Like every other crooked senator from every crooked state hasnt been feeding off the Peoples Trough for years? What about Bushcos Wackenhut buddies, or Halliburton? What about delay making deals with Russia? And Abramoff selling Arms to pro-israel groups? What about that? What about Bushes backloadded Taxes? What about ALL the TAX dollars spent in FLorida, and those SAME people rebuild right back on the Coast, AGAIN AND AGAIN? What about that? Your Blog is useless as wet toilet paper, and only serves to inflame "groups"
Crisis managment, blame game and spin. Is that ALL you KNOW? |

WTF, Mr ho? This has nothing to do with the group to which the players belonged, and everything to do with the perverse incentive structure of the government that makes this kind of thing unavoidable. I highlighted one particular example of government inefficiency. If you don’t like it, there’s millions more. |

WTF, Mr ho?
You don’t recognize the latest incarnation of our favorite banned anti-Semite, Jon?
You must have missed this one on another message:Free market? make me laugh.
If the name of the BLOG lies, then the BLOG itself is a lie. Sound familiar?

Because, in government calculus, Swedish granite countertops are a higher priority than flood protection before the flood, while flood protection is a higher priority that Swedish granite countertops after everything is already flooded. LOL.
Hah! Friggin’ brilliant.
Cheers. |

Some possible defenses of this expenditure:
1. We don’t know how often the renovations are done. Maybe it really was a 1960’s relic of an office. (I doubt this.)
2. The contract had been signed before the flooding. While we understand then govenrment might need that money, it also should honor the contract, especially if the vendor had already bought materials, etc. Shouldn’t punish the company who won the contract due to the weather.
3. Maybe Swedish granite is the cheapest in the world, or just a great value. After all, with free trade you really shouldn’t worry about country of origin, but just get the best deal. |

Some possible defenses of this expenditure: I’ve no doubt that government offices need some sort of upkeep. I question whether they need that kind of upkeep. I addressed the pre-post hurricane nature of the contract in the post. |
