The wither and die is a bit harsh.....but is there anything more F..d up than our welfare system? Is their any better example of Federal waste and incompetence? And he is correct, politicos on both sides of the fence are afraid to deal with it because of the possible backlash form voters...or worse
And THEN, someone might want them to change their name and logo...too

The U.S. Military is a pretty good example of waste and incompetence.
