Saddened by waste

One of the things that I hate most when the government in power changes is all the programs of the previous government get scrapped. Not necessarily because they are bad programs, but because the other party started it.

Now, the gun registry may have been a text book example of a badly run software program, but why scap it now that it's been done? I watched a news story about it and they likened it to complaining that a house renovation cost too much, so you tear down the house.

They want to throw out the billion-dollar project and replace it with something else. *sigh* I hate waste.

  1. Maybe the Cons are scrapping the program because they love guns and war. Control and kill, control and kill. Bush rules!

  2. Maybe they are cancelling it because the maintenance of the gun registry is too much. What are they replacing it with? Another gun registry? If it's cheaper in the long run, then they should probably do it. Then again, they should have scrapped the gun registry years ago when it first started spinning out of control
