Government at its best

Once upon a time the government had a vast scrap yard in the middle of a desert. Congress said, "Someone may steal from it at night." So they created a night watchman position and hired a person for the job. Then congress said, "How does the watchman do his job without instructions?" So they created a planning department and hired two people; one person to write the instructions and one to do time studies. Then Congress said, "How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks correctly?" So they created a Quality Control Department and hired two people; one to do the study and one to write the report. Then congress said, "How are these people going to get paid?" So they created the following positions: a time keeper and a payroll officer, and then hired two people. Then Congress said, "Who will be accountable for all of these people?" So they created an administrative section and hired three people; an Administrative Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary. Then Congress said, "We have had this command in operation for one year and we are $18,000.00 over budge. We must cutback overall cost." So they laid off the night watchman. Sounds allot like what is now being done with HEALTHCARE!
