And In The "You Can't Make This Stuff Up" Department

Picture this.

• One arm of our government has built a national ALS Registry featuring online information, data entry, and risk factor surveys for people with ALS.  They have spent almost $40 million taxpayer dollars and are asking for more.
• Another arm of our government has just implemented rules for people with ALS who need Speech Generating Devices.  They will not be able to access the internet during a 13-month rental period.  

Duh.  Do these people ever talk to each other

We have just built a very expensive highway and have blocked access to the people who need it most. And those signs that were put up April 1 are going to be dreadfully expensive to take down.

This is just outrageously stupid.
