Does not work, sorry.

That is not the argument used to justify buying 40 lightbulbs. They do
not actually purchase 40 lightbulbs, the prices that you see in rag

budget a multi-billion dollar organization and put in reasonable price
and performance controls there are many schools that would hire you
after you revolutionized public administration and the DoD...
