&gt; They should make mismanagement of a government project become a felony.<p>This would involve either:<p>(1) Clear and unambiguous definition of &quot;mismanagement&quot; involving distant-from-the-specific-project procedural mandates, which would reduce &quot;mismanagement&quot; by the definition applied but increase (and mandate) what would be functionally mismanagement for specific real projects (lots of government regulation designed to prevent mismanagement all around the world, while usually not specifically felony criminal rules, works this way now), or<p>(2) Being so ambiguous and vague so as to provide a basis for arbitrary prosecution, such that it would make sure no one wanted to touch management of a government project at all (at least -- assuming this was the US or one with similar fundamental rules as to what can be an enforceable criminal law -- until it was inevitably ruled unenforceable as impermissibly vague.)
