wow, maybe the military need more money to fix up their stuff. the only cause of this could be lack of funding, right? right?

    military tend to have some of the most creative accounting so no matter how much it is always not enough even though by all metrics it is more than enough

    creative? they just don't do it period. their fudge balance was something like 2 billion one year. i don't pass something on if there's a penny in there.

    that's literally a definition of creative accounting

    that ignores the meaning of the word creative. it's lazy but i neither feel like going on a rant nor teaching accounting today.

    being lazy requires finding ways for not doing shit but make it seem like shit gets done - which requires creativity. that's it. of course that's not artistic creativity by any means. but it is technically a creative act.
