Years ago there was a short story titled /"Marching Morons"/ that
somewhat represents the same kind of story. About a salesman (I think)
contracted a hibernating disease that had a simple cure. He was buried
without embalming and dug up 200 years later by one of the dozen or so
remaining people who had some level of intelligence (and who recognized
the hibernating disease and cured it). The problem was that the human
population had continued to grow to the point that it was a very serious
problem. The remaining intelligent people were working hard to maintain
an illusion of "progress", but there were so few of them that it was
getting harder to maintain the illusion. The resurrected salesman (or
whatever he was) came up with a solution to the problem.

I thought the HUD website (hud <dot> gov) had been hacked, but
apparently not, that’s just the way we roll now.

1) It is the Secretary of Defense, not the Secretary of War. The
Department of Defense was created by an act of Congress and can't
be renamed by the "President of Peace", as he likes to call
himself, just because he has his panties in a bunch.
2) What a god awful use of time, money, and resources. The whole
thing could have been an email. Guessing The Secretary of
Eyeliner and the President of Peach concealer just wanted to blow
a couple mill on hearing themselves talk.
