Maybe the government should try keeping things inside and listing them
on ebay. It would have been better than this disgrace. ARRGH!

You forget - anything "government" is required, by default, to be

According to a coworker of mine, this is an outgrowth of policies
set at the end of WWII where it was seen as the government's
duty to throw perfectly good stuff away (vehicles driven off floating
piers into the sea, planes flown directly from manufacturer to
scrapyard) so as not to affect the market for new goods...
