In general, government agencies have no incentive to reduce their "footprint" by instituting policies that would reduce their manpower requirements, budgets or are cost effective. The EPA just waves a magic wand and says "thou shalt get 54 mpg". Who bears the cost of that? The person who buys a car and that's every one of us. Cap and Trade has no positive impact other than to create a bunch of jobs for bureaucrats and raise the cost of energy for....wait for it..... every one of us.
My wife and daughter's jobs involve dealings with several government agencies in the medical field: FDA, Medicare, HHS. The stories they tell of the inane requirements, rules that serve no useful purpose and the paperwork that these agencies require are enough to make your blood boil. You have to have people to fill out the paperwork on the private side and then you need people on the public side (govt) to handle it. And most of it is useless.
It's like the requirement to require backup cameras on every vehicle sold to the tune of $ 2billion/year to consumers. Number of deaths attributed to backups? Less than 900/yr. Will the cameras prevent any of those? Who knows. I'm sure it won't bring it to zero.
Too many govt agencies, too many federal workers. All because the libs want to implement their "nanny" state.
