What, in the whole of NSW, a total of four cars!?!.

I don't know, maybe I'm getting all bent and twisted in my old age . Maybe I'm becoming a skeptic of bureaucracy.

When we see senior members of police being accused of corruption. When we see DOCS not do their job and innocent young children lose their lives. When we see Centrelink stop welfare for terminally ill patients. When we see State and Federal governments screw around with funding for hospitals to the extent that surgery waiting lists are growing and folks are dying waiting for a simple surgical procedure.

And all this is happening at a time of wealth, low unemployment, Budget surplus, and....according to our PM, we have never been better off!!!

What the hell is wrong with bureaucracy today . Don't they realize the threat of having their car crushed will cause some young kids to run. What do we have then?....a police pursuit, excessive speeds, innocent civilians at risk!!!.

Sorry to vent, I'll get off my soapbox now...... I just work in an industry where we see just too much government bungling of issues that if happened in private enterprise, would see senior managers held accountable.
