This has literally been a thing for decades. I knew a mechanic who worked for the AF. He said sometimes a hammer would cost $5k because it was making up some budget flaw.

Now this old geezer has to go. Hopefully he'll be put in his place on Nov 6. The old boys club hopefully will be out of power by 2020. They all need to go.

Sen Grassley (R) is on it! What is more disturbing is the $10k toilet seat lid! Can’t they just go to Lowe’s?

Contracting officers handle these purchases. They are rank and file gs-10's and such, just normal Jane's and Joe's. They could tell you in a New York second how to save money if only somebody would ask them. They have rules they follow or they lose their job or go to jail.

Why don't we try government cut backs before they go after social security? No more free lunch, we pay these people, they can buy their own lunch like everyone else. No more government credit cards. Period

They are probably under direct orders to spend spend spend so it looks like the need is there. Every company does it. It's lame. Why not just offer a raise
