That is likely true. I still want to believe that people are just trying to do the best they can and sometimes they will make mistakes... I know I am probably stupid but I choose to believe that crap just happens sometimes versus there being some big conspiracy or nefarious intentions by the powers that be.

You aren’t stupid at all. Sometimes I think honest mistakes are made and for various reasons people can’t admit to them or feel as though they can’t change their stances for fear of being blamed for incompetence. I saw this happen in the corporate world so I imagine it happens in government too.

I think a lot of times too you are just in a no win situation and you have to make the best decision you can with the information available. People are going to complain and be unhappy no matter what.

I think this definitely happens!
