#1 Pathetic as usual. Not doing more than the bare minimum to survive until somebody else starts doing their job for them.

#2 Someone should have hit the delete button on the NRO, DIA, CIA, Dept of Ag, US State Dept a long, long time ago and started over. The term "re-invent" when used within agencies if proof positive that the need for drastic change has been identified. Keeping them on the ventilator is shameful disservice.

#3 I submit that this is just one more example of private industry doing a more efficient job than government. Over time, any bureaucracy becomes self-serving and more concerned with its turf and budget than its customers. Businesses get paid directly by their customers. Lose you customers and you die. Bureaucracies have captive markets so they don't have to care.
