Bureaucratic Bloat Revisited



The driving force behind the growing number of federal regulatory employees can be explained with one very simple reason: 9-11.

Also note that the Tea Party faction in Congress has pledged not to make cuts to Homeland Defense, a pledge that clearly extends to the TSA.
