War is peace, love is hate, we should redouble our efforts even though what we are doing isn't working

Child abuse investigations don't help children, study finds.

ON THE UPSIDE, THEY PRODUCED VASTLY MORE INTRUSION INTO FAMILIES: Child Abuse Investigations Didn’t Reduce Risk, a Study Finds. “Child Protective Services investigated more than three million cases of suspected child abuse in 2007, but a new study suggests that the investigations did little or nothing to improve the lives of those children.” Also, this employed lots of people in “helping” professions, who tend to vote Democratic. So you’ve got to score this as a win, even if children weren’t any better off. And the study authors suggest that since what we’re doing doesn’t work, we should redouble our efforts! See above. . . .

What a shock!  I mean who knew?  A bunch of government bureaucrats who get paid regardless of results don't get any results?  I didn't see this one coming, I'll tell you that.  H/T Instapundit.
