This is really not surprising knowing the secretary of transportation.

Sounds like Elinor (bloody bitch) Kitzman and Marsha (the dwarf) Adams are in charge of DOT now. They spent a small fortune redecorating the Budget and Control Bd. Guess Elinor was trying to impress Sen. Peeler!
Oh well, it’s just taxpayer money and there is an unlimited supply.
Just ask the twins, Barak O’bama and Nikki Haley!

“The people now live to support government.”

You can add to your list welfare queens, welfare corps, etc. et al

The reality is that there are few net tax payers. It’s looking like the parasites will kill the hosts.

Call Treasurer Loftis. He blistered their ass last year. He put them on the front page and got the contractors paid and their cash balances up and a whole lot more internal reforms done.

I know cause I work there!

You’re assuming they got a cheap brand for a good deal and not a name brand for full suggested retail price, though.

Even then, though, the table and chairs are far worse.

They should be made to sit on milk crates at a folding table. And not just the board room, but their desks too.

Then you need to FOIA the costs. Capital improvements over $100,000 have to be approved by the Budget and Control Board. If no one holds bureaucrats accountable then they will keep doing things like this because they know that nobody cares.

There’s a term called “rational disinterest” that I’ve seen applied to this “nobody cares” situation.

Bascially, the theory is that because people inherently know voting doesn’t work and that most pols won’t really be held accountable for corruption they just “get on” with the daily lives and ignore the whole unfixable situation.

It’s an interesting theory and seems axiomatic.

One can come to FITSnews and see every day the wasteland of corruption on all levels. It’s unstoppable.

Jake Knotts getting income from his illegal video game empire, Lillian McBride retaining her job, etc. et al….while there are exceptions to the rule so to speak, they actual times dirty pols(which is 95% of them) actually pay for their crimes is infinitesimally small in comparison to the total population of pols.

The Budget and control board is a Damn joke! Should be called the BS (Bull Shit)Board.

Huge Leatherman, big spending RINO who cares a Damn about the taxpayer and will waste every cent he can.

Richard Eckstrom, who is a perverted prick sniffing female butts is his gig.

Brian White, Bobby harrells butt boy his strings are pulled by Harrell and isn’t allowed to take a crap without Harrells approval.

Nikki Haley, who is a proven liar, cheat, who will sell her soul for a dollar and has appointed the worse, most incompetent ass kissers ever in State Government.

Curtiss Loftis who has been de-nutted by the afore mentioned bunch of rogues and scoundrells.

“Curtiss Loftis who has been de-nutted”

It does seem that way.

He’s probably a decent fellow and had good intentions…but had to learn a hard lesson on the nature of gov’t. He’s probably no longer naive in that regard.

He’d be a better contributor to society back out in the market place instead of wasting his time with the foolish notion of “fixing” the gov’t mafia from the inside.

….. how much per hour does it cost for these “improvements”? Divide the number of hours actually used into the total cost – use one calendar year just for kicks. I don’t know how oftern the board meets or for how many hours. —- just curious!

What do you expect from a Haley appointee, other than graft, corruption, and ineptitude??

St. Onge is just another one.
