Subject: FW: Very good observation about the shutdown
Sounds plausible to me, they sure did have the signs
available.
Very good observation:
I have worked in the
government on and off for 40 years. During that time I became quite familiar
with requisitions, bidding, awarding contracts etc. It is a time consuming
process with bean-counters and pencil-necked bureaucrats every step of the way.
The simplest request takes months not days or hours.
In less than 8 hours of the
shutdown, miraculously, professionally printed 3X4 foot signs appeared all over
the country in the tens of thousands saying-[park, facility, etc. with custom
logos] closed due to government shutdown. There has not been a government
shutdown in 17 years. These signs were designed, specifications were
determined, signs were then requisitioned, bids were posted and vetted,
government contracts were awarded. The materials were then ordered and the
signs manufactured then distributed U.S. Mails or freight companies.
This
shutdown was orchestrated and planned well in advance at least 6-8 month ago.
Millions of tax dollars were appropriated and spent in this process. There is a
paper trail a mile long leading directly to the White House.
