Your tax dollars at work, of course. The only truly interesting part
would be to find out how many hundreds of thousands of dollars, how
many thousands of hours of committee meetings, and who-knows-what-else
went into coming up with such a hairbrained thing.
One can only wonder if it was a kibibuck, a mibibuck, or a gibibuck ...

Someone was smoking something real weird when they came up with those
