Professionally Coordinated Chaos

It's been said that a "bureaucracy" is just a whole bunch of "professional" coordinators.  Problem is, Washington's got so many of them it's just one big professionally coordinated screw-up.  If you don't believe me, please read on (unless you just got done eating)...


According to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration, the Internal Revenue Service had a 21% to 26% error rate issuing Earned Income Tax Credit payments in Fiscal Year 2011.  This equates to $13.7 to $16.7 billion in EITC improper payments.  Imagine how long Apple would stay in business if 25% of the iPhones it sold didn't work.


Or, how about this one...


When Obamacare was being "sold" to the American people, we were told the 10-year gross costs would be less than $1 trillion (938 billion to be exact).  However, current estimates by the Congressional Budget Office estimates Obamacare for the next ten years will cost the American taxpayer $1.76 trillion...almost twice the phony baloney figures mentioned just two years ago.  That's 176,000,000,000,000 pennies.  And I wouldn't give you two cents for all them "professional coordinators" in the whole country.
