Could not agree more. No transparency in any money that is spent. Government (others in other party too over the years) are run like mob organizations. There has never been more revenue coming into our country than in this past year, yet we are projected for a record setting deficit. So much inefficiencies in most every aspect of our government. For this bunch in charge now? Time for an offsite meeting in Dubai versus the conference room down the hall. Get their heads together on what they should spend money on next, and who they can shake down the day after. There is something very wrong.
Agreed, isn't it time to get the gang together again and head to the UAE? Good times!! Incredible rate of return on the investment for the country. Would love to see that analysis.
Security officer? How about using the dollars and hire more health care officials. What would save lives more? I woman or man in a hot blue suit with a baton, standing around all day, or more life saving professionals working in these clinics each day? Let's get on this one, right after they investigate who paid the $400 for the Andros post party clean up!
before the start of the normal response from the government and many readers with their, "yes, but what about you USA?" let us take a moment and think about how much waste and graft is built into our society that we come in contact each day with, and at what cost? $100,000,000 annually? $300,000,000? The foot dragging is such a clear indicator as to how deep this corruption runs. With both parties. Shameful.
This requires the upmost attention by our Government. We should set up multiple committees and investigative teams to look into this most serious matter. This kind of violation of our highly regarded laws cannot be tolerated, especially in a fully transparent, law abiding democracy. I hope everyone follows this most concerning matter to it is investigative conclusion.
