Peter Van Buren is a State Department employee (for 23 years) and a whistle-blower, harassed by State and near being fired. One of his blogs (that links to others) is here. It shows the enormous waste of bureaucracy and influence of political correctness standards toward females. It talks of the influence on State of contractors getting goodies from the government through war in Iraq. In some ways it goes beyond what Kafka depicted in The Trial and The Castle in showing the utter stupidity and waste involved in government, the monumental greed involved, and the robotic and merciless actions of employees in the bureaucracy. It’s a big grinding machine and employees must conform. Pull it.
