Too hard to explain

 Apparently the state legislature voted to refurbish the capital dome to the tune of many millions of dollars. Not sure shy. Looked good to me and its not like anyone does anything there. Turns out it is now going to cost 100 million more to finish, The government did not think it was necessary to explain that to the citizens. Who did not vote to refurbish the building anyway. yes, the did vote for the useless people who thought it was a good thing. Now why would they not think the people needed to know? Most people would want a reason for paying more than they originally agreed on. Maybe, the government didn't want to explain and be judged for one more screw up.

Um duh. If you don't work and earn money and save for things you want you don't get them. And you shouldn't. What happened to the Americans who worked and expected nothing from anyone. Where did all those people go?
