IMO all travel and meetings by all government employees should be cancelled until further notice. If there is something everyone needs to know, send an email or a fax. The other thing that needs to happen is to immediately cancel all credit cards issued to all government employee. If Congressmen need to visit somewhere just one needs to go and they can come back and report to the rest of the group. All of this is just absolutely ridiculous. They may be morons but they have been getting away with this for a lot of years.
Senators and Congressmen travel on fact-finding missions to Paris, London, Jamaica, Brazil, and Thailand each year. It’s the same issue with these guys.

The company I work for, like virtually every company anyone owns, manages, or works for here, has tightened the belt considerably, and travel is approved ONLY when there is no other choice. We do this, so that these M#@-$#$%$ can do “Important Govenment Work” with our savings.
On another subject - pity the poor magicians and mind-readers. What are they going to do for a living now????? I suspect that ANY company will consider such entertainment “frivolous and wasteful” from here on out.
