Just PART of the high cost of bungling --
from: EXCLUSIVE: Biden Spending Millions per Day to Halt Border Wall Construction
Mar 21, 2021
"The pause on construction of the border wall costs taxpayers about six million dollars per day while construction sites sit idle, Breitbart Texas learned from a senior Department of Homeland Security official. On Sunday, March 21, the 60-day pause in construction of the border wall is scheduled to end."
According to the source, the expenditures are required for materials orders placed before the pause and expenses for the cost of equipment sitting idle. When the issuance of a stop work order causes a contractor to idle equipment, they are entitled to be compensated for rental expenses or costs of ownership."
Shortly after taking office, President Biden signed an executive order temporarily halting any further progress on the border wall so individual contracts could be evaluated. With the exception of “make-safe” activities at the worksites, construction projects immediately came to a standstill, Breitbart Texas reported. The end of the 60-day pause does not, however, signal an automatic restart of construction."
Early in the pause, a spokesperson for the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) informed Breitbart Texas that contractors would be informed of a final decision sometime after the 60-day pause concludes. The time was to be used for evaluating each contract to reach a decision to terminate-for-cause or continue."
=====================
Having "no plan" when stopping a working solution, then paying 6 million a day for such a "brilliant" idea while waiting to think something up - would be called incompetence if it was corporate business.
Good thing it is "only" politics , and the security and safety of America, as well as exposing non-Citizens to victimization by crime organizations outside the U.S.
