that. At the heart of this stupid idea is some bureaucrat somewhere, likely at the state level who does nothing but cook up a hairbrain scheme like this (at your expense let's not forget) so they can say "look what I did, I came up with this program/idea/policy/whatever" in an effort to get promoted or boost their career in someway. I have to deal with these numbnuts on a daily basis in the AF (except we call them "field grade officers" or "senior enlisted"). These people are masters of an art in which they can come up with some stupid idea that at the most superficial level sounds like a great idea, but to all those capable of thinking past step 1 (an ever shrinking population I might also add), it is clearly stupid, and they can provide all sorts of six-degrees-of-seperation data and pseudo-statistics that also appear to support and validate the success or merit of their little idea. It's government run amok. Inescapable. You guys got off light @ 15grand
 "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of "liberalism", they will adopt every principle of our socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without ever knowing how it happened.... I no longer need to run on the Socialist Party ticket because the Democrat Party has now adopted our platform." --Norman Thomas, 1944 Socialist Party Presidential Candidate "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." --Winston Churchill END THE FED ....learn why, in 42 minutes
