"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
'The King of Ruffle Bar' and the Insanity of Bureaucracy
Submitted by Melinda L. Secor on Sun, 2012-10-28 01:00
"The delusional aspects have to do with the institutionalized necessity to control ‘everything,’ and the widely accepted notion that the bureaucrat knows what is best; never for a moment does he doubt the validity of the bureaucratic solution. It is also slightly insane, or at least indicative of our incapacity to order priorities with any common sense, to spend thousands of dollars for helicopters, gasoline, and salaries for the sole purpose of bureaucratic neatness."
