The government strikes again

The Crazy Horse Memorial has to be one of the least understood attractions ever attempted in South Dakota. You see it wasn’t planned and built by some enterprising young man looking to make a fortune, it was built to pacify a group of Indians that thought they owned Mount Rushmore from some old treaty. Just to get them off the mountain and make the place safe for tourists the government agreed to build Crazy Horse. We all know how government can spend more money on a lower quality product than anyone else, so you know what I expect to see at the memorial.
