There was a little incident in France in 1789 when a building was also a symbol of abuse of power. Perhaps we all remember it from history class. It was the “Storming of the Bastille” and it started a revolution. I can think of no better outcome of the LIO building then have it cause a symbolic repeat of history. The economic parallels are pretty remarkable.  The more appropriate use of 1.5 million for the security enhancements at the Capitol would be for bars on the windows and conversion to a prison to house all the criminals that seem to congregate there.
