government bureaucracy

What: "A government bureaucracy is like a leaky dam built directly over a town. It mostly fixes the problem while at the same time causing another new set of problems. All the while no one can threaten to get rid of the bureaucracy because the town would be flooded."

What: "Love is the greatest power in the universe. Think of the parent-child bond, or the teacher-student bond. Government agencies cannot love like this, though they are charged to do things that only love can do. That starting a government bureaucracy is like inviting a baby elephant to live in your family's log cabin."

What: Government bureaucracies, like guns, are merely objects.Guns don't kill people, and bureaucracies aren't corrupt. People kill people, and people are corrupt.

What: "I think that dealing with government bureaucracies is like dealing with your spouse. It's easier to tiptoe into bed at 3 am after a night out with the boys then it is to turn on the lights and argue with her about your right to go out with your buddies. After 21 years with my wife I have learned that a little creativity and imagination goes a lot further towards me advancing my cause then does a head to head battle. I think the same logic works here. Just my 2 cents."

What: "But once the Jew ties the knot with Israel by making aliyah, the honeymoon quickly fades and the reality of married Israeli life kicks in. For non-Hebrew speakers there are communication barriers; the government bureaucracy is like a pesky mother-in-law who kills the romance with endless, prying demands; it's hard to go out on dates when bogged down by financial worries because the oleh has trouble finding a good job."

What: "Government bureaucracy is like some sick combination of organized crime and a blindfolded, frantic six-year-old swinging at a pinata. They get their taste, even if they have to kill you for it - or, in working for their end, they are going to remorselessly trash a ton of shit. Even a child's vegetable stand."

What: "I think we can agree that government bureaucracy is like a Hydra... cut off one head and two more grow in it's place with all the same attributes... I dislike some things in the county government, and I document them, then address them... usually they get worked.. sometimes it takes two visits.."

What: "Government bureaucracy is like a goldfish. If you put a little goldfish into a big fish tank, it will eventually grow to the size of that tank. Increasing the size of that fish tank, called Town Hall, will give the government goldfish more room to grow. Bureaucracies will always justify their existence and their need for more. They are not accountable to the taxpayers. So long as they don't screw up big time, or use town credit cards for escorts, their jobs are pretty much safe."
