I think in theory bureacracy and regs work fine, but in practice, the system is built to be abused by the lazy and inept. You've got to admit there is nothing worse than trying to wring a decision out of a pack of scared shitless middle managers. I've blown up at meeting and almost said "Make a fucking decision!" These people should be accountable and they're not. They need to be reviewed rigorously and fired when they don't produce anything other than more regs and policy memos.
If I fuck up, I get fired. Why should so many sods in the middle of govt and big business be allowed to be so inefficient and counterprocudtive?

You have to have procedures to do things consistently across many, many people. Consistency is, generally speaking, fairer than inconsistency. Inconsistency leads to lawsuits, which are higher in costs than having a procedure.
I agree that it can get out of hand and that some people take it too far, but shit, would you want people who can't even really figure out how a procedure works to have discretion over each individual decision?????
