In a move it says is aimed at saving money and trees, the Bush administration plans to charge lawmakers $200 for copies of this year's federal budget.Democrats and Republicans alike groaned about the decision, telling The Hill that the extra expenses will not be easy to find in already strained budgets.
Well, I don’t know how that saves money – it redistributes it – so I guess he’s talking about saving money for his department. And it sure doesn’t save trees, unless the reports are made to order and nobody orders.
Surely it’s a computerized document that can be made available on the network. They could print it out for a lot less than $200, couldn’t they?
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
