Idiotic spending from government - what a surprise!


The souvenir shop in Parliament House only turned over $110,000 last year. Turn over, not profit.

So now they're going to pay $250,000 for a survey to see how they can increase their turnover.

That's not a misprint. A quarter of a million dollars for a survey. Read all about it:

They could, like, open longer hours, sell stuff people actually want, staff it with people who have customer service skills, stuff like that.
