Over the last six or seven years a HUGE building rehab
has been going on in Sacramento. That happens. Buildings need
work. The odd thing is that virtually everybody involved in it is
required to sign an NDA. Over 2,000 of them in total.
The
project was originally budgeted at about $440 million. It is now about
$1.2 billion. Virtually all of the operational decisions are being
made by paid staffers and not by members of the legislature themselves.
The money is going for things like having CA granite shipped to Italy
to be made into bricks and then shipped back to CA.
This
stinks. Some of the local media have been making a big deal about this
the last couple of months. Maybe once the elections are over and we
find out how many Democrat-Socialists are safely ensconced in office
somebody with some balls with start looking hard at this. I am not
claiming that the money is being wasted or poorly spent, but when you
make a big deal about trying to keep expenditure of public funds
confidential I am inclined to be highly skeptical.
