The health care mess

  Burgeoning, unaccountable, untrackable...these all seem to be elements of the new health care bill. As Europe pulls away from socialized medicine and its disastrous effects on human life, the USA is being railroaded into establishing so many new departments to make it work that it is impossible to tell how many new governmental divisions there will be. None of these departments are accountable to elected officials. Imagine appealing a decision by some government worker regarding your health care: it will take years to establish the ineffectiveness of these departments (and it will be ineffective) and then years to tear it down and replace it with something better.
  Politico has a rundown.

And others could be just the opposite: One entity might not be enough and could spawn others, resulting in an “indeterminate number of new organizations.”
The CRS report cites as an example a minority health provision that “requires the heads of six separate agencies within Health and Human Services to each establish their own offices of minority health.”
