The permanent government is essentially an extension of one political party.

Drew M. writes at Ace of Spades:
As government has grown and liberal Democrats have flocked to government "service" we are in the position where the permanent government is essentially an extension of one political party. Even when Democrats are out of power their sympathizers embedded throughout the bureaucracy carry on their work immune from Republican pressure (to the extent they even want to exert it).

Of course the real solution is shrinking the size and scope of government but let's be honest, that's not on the table.

The House can hold all the oversight hearings it wants but until a fundamental reform of the public employee sector is on the table, don't expect anything to change.

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.

Yes. That line from our Declaration of Independence is more relevant than ever.
