Now here’s one to inspire confidence in bureaucracies!

Porn viewing runs amok at DC agencies

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON –

An investigation of city computers found that dozens of employees frequented pornographic Web sites at work and clicked on thousands of images, the mayor said Wednesday.

The D.C. powers-that-be are to be commended for taking immediate remedial action after discovering the problem, but one wonders just what they were doing that allowed the problem to become so enormous. 

I also can’t help wondering if, prior to the employee complaint that resulted in this clean-up, there had been others, and people told to just keep their mouths shut.

Coming soon: a report on back channel communiques from bureaucrats.  There are good bureaucrats out there who want to see all kinds of problems corrected, but who can’t speak publicly for fear of losing their jobs.  I have been hearing from some of them.

Later, and Peace.
