Does that surprise you?

Short form: Bureaucracy exists throughout the private sector, too, not just in government. We have the right, responsibility and dire need of far more public oversight and accountability. That would eliminate the worst excesses of government bureaucracy, but is virtually powerless over private bureaucracy. So while bureaucracy is ubiquitous and unavoidable throughout public AND private organizations, we have a remedy for the former and none for the latter. Consequently, the former is preferable since one or the other must exist.
