    It’s the combination of both that makes it extra egregious.

    Honestly, I don’t want to walk into a government building and have it look extravagant in any way. It immediately indicates misallocation of funds and bad priorities.

    Show me a functional, but boring, office. Use that money for the thing you were appointed to do you fucking psychopaths.
