Story: EU Parliament forgives Council for adopting patent directive
Posted by: Stomfi (Friday 1 April 2005, 8:14 AM)
There is an old saying in Government that the second pupose of the bureaucracy is to employ those who cannot find a real job.
The first is to stop the wheels of government turning so fast that they avoid the real wants of the tax payer.
It would seem that in this issue the second is true, but somehow the first is no longer.
When this happens to a bureaucracy it is usually because the decision makers are being controlled or influenced by the lobbyists.
The normal fix it procedure in these cases, is to promote the entrenched players sideways into less sensitive areas and promote those not yet influenced by lobbyists, into their places.
If this doesn't happen, there is a strong possibility of either a revolution or of the system fragmenting and becomming unmanagable.
Lets hope promotions are in order before anything irrevocable happens.
