Those who have followed recent events have witnessed a lot of "I don't knows" from government officials.
The current administration has turned the branches of government into islands of anarchist bureaucracies. President Barack Obama seems to get considerable coverage from the media while revealing he neither directs nor follows the operations of most government agencies. Heads of agencies have stated to Congress that they don't direct or follow operations in their agencies. Department heads similarly appear not to direct or follow the work in their departments.
Inefficient, unsupervised, partisan bureaucrats are affecting nearly every American. Just look at the unprecedented tsunami of burdensome rules and regulations overwhelming small companies that create most of the new jobs.
The results are continued high unemployment, lower tax revenues and higher unemployment costs. Combined with the increasing, huge cost of welfare, health care and runaway entitlement costs, we are going broke.
The United States will not have the wherewithal to sustain benefits. What will our country be like then?
Such anarchist bureaucracy is an equivalent "weapon of wealth destruction." Is Congress capable of defusing it before it destroys our economy and the life of every American?
