The topic lends itself to the grossly irresponsible misuse of public tax dollars ... Something many taxpayers consider to be criminal.

What's not to understand ???

I think more times than not some people on this board could get things better done than the people who we have elected to represent us.

In reality this board sometimes forces you to see things from different perspectives.
The people commenting on this board are smart enough to solve the problems being discussed.

But if they were elected or appointed into public office... They'd be smart enough to figure out that holding onto a six figure government job would require keeping one's mouth shut and maintaining the status quo ... ...just long enough to retire ASAP and hang onto their 1950's style pension.
