"They ran it like it was . . . their own little fiefdom," Geee imagine that? Petty little appointed bureaucrats, unanswerable to anyone, acting like that.

"You know, I’m a federal contractor, and everytime I have to visit a federal client, there is always some sort of meeting or conference going on. That’s about all the government likes to do when its not actively trying to screw the public, have lots of meetings and conferences."

Multiply this by the tens of thousands and you will have a pretty good picture of the total nature of government bureaucracy.

We have this romanticized image of the "family farmer," but the fact is, agriculture nowadays is dominated by giant companies as big and corrupt as anything in any other industry...all under the eye of a government that's even more corrupt.There are still a lot of family farms, but many have had to increase scale to be able to stay afloat through years of stagnant commodity prices, and those have had to incorporate in order to avoid being sold off piecemeal to pay the death tax. So it does not look like it used to at that level except for specialty crops.
Then there are Monsanto, ADM, ConAgra, ...
