They do this because Government uses incremental budgeting instead of zero-based budgeting, which means whatever is spent the previous year is the basis for setting the next year's budget. Therefore, if you have any appropriations at years end, you spend that shit all up in order to have a higher budget next year.
Spot on, happens here too. Amazing some of the frivolous 'upgrades' which have been made, funnily towards the end of teh financial year

grad students are some of the smartest idiots on the planet.

Also, 19.1M NaOH is labeled liquid death for a reason. 97% H2SO4 when dropped will burn through a leather shoe quickly.

One of my friends always named his gaming characters H2SO4 and I didn't know what it meant until I began taking Chemistry classes.

If you even touch them in a restraining way (ie gripping their shirt) you can be charged for battery. Security has NO rights what so ever to touch somebody unless that person has become violent with them.

If I stop somebody in a store and they make it to the parking lot, which is not actually our property but the malls property I am NOT allowed to do anything unless I have other guards on site. If I were to leave site to chase a shoplifter I would be fired on the spot and the company would be sued for breaching their contract since there was no guard on site.

If I lose contact with a suspect for even a second, I am not allowed to place them under citizens arrest as they could have hid what they stole in a different area. Example, you stole a pack of gum, put it in your pant pocket. You turn the corner before I do and hide it in your jacket pocket. If I were to arrest you for stealing gum and tell the police where the gum is located (your pant pocket) it will not be there and I will be sued for wrongful arrest, if i touched you battery as well.

If the alarm goes off in a store I have NO right whatsoever to search you or your belongings. I can ask for a receipt and do a quick glance at what is in your possession but I cannot go through your bags.

In order for me to be able to choke a man on job I would need to fear for my life as a choke even by somebody who is trained is a potentially deadly technique and therefor can only be used in the most extreme of circumstances, which of course I would not be sticking around for because I would be running the fuck away by the time it got anywhere close to that.

If you still think this is out of date I can give you news articles from across the globe which prove otherwise
You sound like a brainwashed Intelligarde employee.
