I wonder if Martin can wriggle out of this one too
The Gun Registry is now costing $2 billion. Thats up from $1 billion, which was up from $2 million.
Its funny, but in the non-government "real world", a project going 1000 times over budget would result in some people being fired and the project being cancelled as a gross failure. Especially with fun like $750 million for a computer system that still doesn't work properly.
Back in the real world, $750 million can buy you a moderately sized IT Company, complete with several computer systems that actually work and the knowledge of how to implement more.
But yeah, I'm sure we don't have anything better to do with $2 billion then track who owns the handgun that robbed the convenience store... oh wait, it doesn't track that. My bad. So just what are we paying for again?
