Gubinmint and How Gubinmint Works
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 instruction?" So they created
a planning department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person
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 studies and one to write the reports..
Then Congress said, "How are these people going to get paid?" So They created the following positions,
a time keeper, and a payroll officer, 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 over budget,
we must cutback overall cost." So they laid off the night watchman.
NOW slowly, let it sink in.
Quietly, we go like sheep to slaughter.
Does anybody remember the reason given for the establishment of the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY..... during
the Carter Administration?
Anybody?
Anything?
No?
Didn't think so!
Bottom line. We've spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency...the reason for which not one
person who reads this can remember!
Ready??
It was very simple....and at the time, everybody thought it very appropriate. The Department of Energy was
instituted on August 4th 1977 ,TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL...
Hey, pretty efficient, huh???
AND NOW IT'S 2009 -- 32 YEARS LATER -- AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS "NECESSARY" DEPARTMENT IS AT
$24.2 BILLION A YEAR. THEY HAVE 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT
EMPLOYEES; AND LOOK AT THE JOB THEY HAVE DONE! THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY,
"SHIT,WHAT WAS I THINKING?"
32 years ago 30% of our oil consumption was foreign imports. Today 70% of our oil consumption is foreign imports.
Ah, yes -- good ole bureaucracy..
AND, NOW, WE ARE GOING TO TURN THE BANKING SYSTEM, HEALTH CARE, AND THE AUTO INDUSTRY OVER TO
THE SAME GOVERNMENT? HELLOOOOOO! Anybody Home?
DO YOURSELF A FAVOR, COMES NEXT ELECTION, DON'T VOTE ANY INCUMBENTS INTO OFFICE. LET'S START
FRESH. IT CAN'T GET ANY WORST.
