Adam is confused

Adam read the Herald editorial on the appointment of the Brash taskforce with some concern. The editorial seemed to have confused the appointment of a small taskforce with the Australian Productivity Commission.

Whilst agreeing with the Herald that the appointment of Brash might be a mistake, he could not see how a 5 person taskforce with a reported budget in total of $477,000, you have to love the spurious accuracy of that number do you not, can conceivably be expected to achieve in say a 3 year period what the APC has achieved in 2 decades with far greater resources and support.

In fact the taskforce would achieve some credibility in this commentators mind if it immediately said the budget of $477,00 is too small and we need more resource and money.
