Meh., fuck em, they think that government is a business. Right off the bat that ought to establish the idiocy of their creds.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

What cut, better businessmen are looking to get the deal for themselves, they'll just cut his dumb ass out.  The WLB will be left holding the consequences, not the assets.

Politicians make this mistake constantly, imagining that they're outsmarting the lobbyists who are paid to shit all over them. They don't realize that they're the fall guy. Their grift is whatever pittance is allowed to them in order to satisfy the conditions of their complicity in a much, much larger theft.

Plan on all the engineers maintaining the roads, the electricty infrastructure, the dams, the sewerage, the railways and all the other necessary stuff being fired, in favour of paying the maintenance money to executives as bonii.

Is the cost of the average legal settlement in the event of bridge collapse lesser than, or greater than, the price of required maintenance on said bridge?  Is the rate of occurence of bridge collapse lesser or greater than the expected sufficient lifetime of said maintenance?
