It'd be nicer if they reflected honest economic costs. Truth is that costs associates with most land transportation and Secret Service-based costs are sunk costs - those exist if the dude essentially takes a drive downtown to In and Out Burger. I'd rather them reflect the costs that accurately portray the difference between doing something and doing nothing. That's what I'm worried about as an accountant.
Anyone with a financial background who doesn't differentiate fixed and variable costs is an ideologue, period.
