Stolen plane used as justification for pointless tasks rants

[Lead Balloon]

If doing pointless things is part of someones daily life then i suppose you sort of become immune to it.

The process is generally referred to as ‘continuous improvement.'

Unfortunately though that concept is now so far-removed from the reality of day-to-day public service and government administration in Australia, and that as a glaringly obvious missing ‘control’.

Continuous improvement means imposing ever-more-stringent requirements, complexity and cost on the law-abiding. The law abiding become ‘immune to it’ because they have no choice if they wish to make a living out of flying or presume to fly for fun.

But we can’t let terrorism change the way we go about our daily lives - otherwise the terrorists have won.
