Government accountability
Do you ever get annoyed at how government takes your tax money and tosses it around, without much accountability as to how much money goes where?
Well, in New Mexico they want to make sure you don't get that feeling.
When you drive by a highway construction project, the cost of the project is right there -- down to the nearest dollar. (With no commas, so be careful when counting those digits that you don't run into the car in front of you.)
$7557022.00. Now that's accountability!
(We won't talk about the completion date of fall 2013 and the fact
that this photo was taken in early 2014. I hope that doesn't make
the costs overrun to $7557022.50 or even $7557023.00.)
