>It's a government bureaucracy with no public representation. The people who run it would have to get "real jobs" and turn in their "badges and billy clubs" if it didn't exist; that's the interest. The will to power.

Bureaucrats running amuck, eh? We don't have that problem here. Public workers are very sensitive to citizens concerns. One reason is the legislature is unicameral. Another is that many executive positions are filled at the voters pleasure. Play Ghingus Kahn too long and you will be looking for a new job. This pretty much helps control the lower level permenant bureaucrats, like me, because 'stuff' rolls down hill. :)
