I work for the government. In a word, yes, the whole government is incompetent. This is a direct result of the personnel management system which is geared to avoiding offending anyone, avoiding rewarding initiative, avoiding punishment, and there is almost no way to root out incompetent/corrupt employees. And I'm in the medical field. We don't even want to go there.

I so agree. It all goes 3 times for the INS. Commerce, Education, INS: why, oh why, are these things allowed to operate this way?

Commerce, Education, INS: why, oh why, are these things allowed to operate this way?

Why, oh why, is the second one allowed to operate at all?

Because government employees are a huge voting block for the left.
