[quote=Anonymous]Bureaucracy feeds on itself and creates its own extensive busywork. Administrative tasks begets more administrative tasks. Yes, government work is not productive. It's a slow, massive beast that operates on a very different timescale and answers to a very different master (or rather, no master). Most employees are in their jobs because it is easy. Busywork isn't the same as challenging. I had a government job and left after two years. At my first private sector job I accomplished more in six months than most of my old gov't coworkers did in six years. I will allow that the very cream of the crop, perhaps the top 5% of Fed employees, are genuinely accomplished people. But the rest are seeking to coast till retirement without working too hard.
