I think it's safe to say that DOT's seemingly never-ending incompetence is the single largest contributor to the recent, ongoing trend of enormous state budget shortfalls. I'm only half joking when I say I hope Bertha's next project will be to dig a mass grave for the managers making the decisions on these catastrophically failed projects. I suppose I would settle for a few of those at the top being fired.... Whatever the means, there needs to be some degree of accountability for stuff like this.
