Parasites Play Dirty

July 20, 2010 permalink

When changes in government spending save the taxpayers money, the parasites who formerly received the unnecessary spending fight dirty to keep their money. Today the CBC broadcast the story of bureaucrats Douglas Tipple and David Rotor (mp3), hired to cut spending in Canadian government procurement. After a year of success, a false leaker planted slanderous stories in the press to get them fired. It gives some idea of why it is so difficult for government to cut spending on utterly unnecessary functions such as child protection.
