Good thing there are actually no serious issues to investigate,
like, oh, I dunno, massive corporate looting of the country or
high-level government corruption and cronyism, or anything like that.

It boggles the mind. How much money is wasted on seemingly illegal
nonsense in the pursuit of catching people who may be interested in
breaking laws?

These ideas are useful for one thing (other than wrongful arrests of
course): Ideas so poor help underscore the need for transparency in all
sectors of government.
