The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

There's a big scandal going on right now in Boston over the Big Dig. Apparently, someone supplied the project with low-grade, poor quality cement/concrete. So the safety of the tunnels that were made under the Charles River is in question now. There are fines and charges being thrown about. Yaddah yaddah...

I was thinking about this, though. It seems to me that there are lots of people in high places (MA govt, CA govt, FEMA, Bush Admin) who are making big decisions about vital things and seem not to be qualified at all to do their job. Who hired these idiots for the Big Dig? The freakin thing leaks and is made with shoddy material. Sheesh!
