So in your mind bureaucracy == failure?
Interesting, and there is probably some merit to that viewpoint. Of course, I could scrounge around and find some bureaucracies that were a resounding success.
Yet what do we have now? "Guaranteed mass confusion, no savings, and tons of room for corporate lobbyists to ask Congress to manipulate rules ad nauseum." Yes, indeed....
So in absence of the "perfect solution", we have no solution. Dunno about you, Ben, but that doesn't sound like a ringing endorsemnent for the status quo, now does it? Hell, you're an IT guy...don't you believe in a solution that is "good enough" to solve a problem, or are you an ivory towerist that insists on all or nothing?
(I think I already know the answer...it's a rhetorical question.)
