And when does the government ever produce a savings of anything by having the smallest possible burocracy? Most of the expansion of government is for the production of the need for more government.
In the private sector, the human desire to swell the ranks of management is at least tempered by the necessity of maintaining a proffitable business. Grow too fat and the competition will eat you. But government has no natural competition, its natural resources (acquiring dollars through taxation) is nearly limitless, and if the consumers are harmed, they cannot stop using the government ‘product’.
‘Government efficiency’ is the greatest of all oxymorons.
