Clip: Wa. Supreme Court Petition Scam The Hoover Dam stands as a remarkable example of government efficiency, completing a massive infrastructure project two years ahead of schedule with only a 0.2% cost overrun of $110,000. This Depression-era success story contrasts sharply with today's government projects that suffer from bureaucratic bloat, endless delays, and massive budget overruns. • Hoover Dam was completed two years ahead of schedule despite its massive scale • Construction benefited from motivated Depression-era workforce grateful for employment • Modern projects face bureaucratic roadblocks from numerous agencies and regulations • Today's initiative process allows courts to invalidate citizen-led measures after election • Proposed solution: require courts to pre-approve initiative language before signature gathering • Pre-approval process would prevent wasted effort and increase accountability • Contrast between historic efficiency and modern inefficiency reveals systemic problems • Reform needed to restore government effectiveness and responsiveness to citizens
