Like asking the worst student in class to copy his homework. <BR/>Everybody knows, and I mean everybody, not just the professional organisation consultants such as myself, not just the people who worked for the state or still work there, no everybody knows the government as the LEAST EFFICIENT institution of them all. Which makes them the LEAST QUALIFIED to teach on this subject.<BR/>Now that is still funny. What is LESS FUNNY is that this institution also imposes its inefficient models on every other institution it subsidises. Who knows not what this means in daily practicte? It means that it changes well-willing people working to make a better world into paper producers. Fillers of forms. Calculators of risks. Imposing control in the name of the ever control hungry government. <BR/><BR/>Of course the reality is that inviting government to talk wasn't a joke. It was an opportunity for all subsidy dependents to see what words to use in their next application. 'Co-operation' will be the word preached on all the application from now on. It's a circus where everybody plays its role and everybody knows it from eachother. But change is at hand, an initiative like 1procentclub really takes a different road, I hope soon we will all be independent off the archaic models of government!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
