[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][img]https://img.washingtonpost.com/wp-apps/imrs.php?src=https://img.washingtonpost.com/rw/2010-2019/WashingtonPost/2016/12/06/Investigative/Graphics/2300-1-PENTAGON1113.jpg?uuid=oW59zLtIEeaueb7HLTT4yQ&w=600[/img][/quote] I have not read the report or the articles about it, but just want to comment on this graphic and what it tells us. The fact that there is a "back-office" bureaucracy at the Pentagon and that there are 1 million people employed there is not, ipso facto, evidence of "bloat." It sounds bad and doesn't play well on TV, but is it bad? Better information for this discussion would be how this level of bureaucracy compares with, say, other government agencies or the military in previous years so we could consider the question of what is the optimal level of bureaucracy in the military.[/quote]
