I don’t understand why our government wastes incessant amounts of money on art that resembles excrement while services for those in need like this man are in a constant state of disarray. Mention goes to art only because it’s the worst example of discretionary spending gone delusional. There are so many other illustrations.

I’d rather that $700,000 on the newest public cat scratch-post be allocated to healthcare for the elderly. Or maybe those cool millions spent redoing the Gungahlin Drive Extension after they originally made it one-laned.

Couldn’t we give these people GPS tracking? (smart phones et al).

Seriously, it saves on the heartaches for family members and anyone sympathetic with such incidents.

he’s been found.
