Holy... cost overrun, Batman! Canada's Auditor General, Sheila Fraser, released a report on Tuesday that shows Canadian taxpayers will have paid CDN$860 million for a gun registration program that was slated to cost only CDN$2 million. To put this into perspective, that is 43,000% higher than their original forecast! Yes, you read that right: fourty-three thousand percent higher! Oh baby, when it comes to wasting money there is nobody even in the same league as the government and our wonderful politicians. And in this particular case, what really gets me pissed off is that this stupid gun registry is a pointless feel-good exercise that will not help prevent any crime whatsoever. Any sane person can tell you that all the criminals won't suddenly go and register their guns anyways, so what is the point of this money-draining registry?
