A recent Congressional Research Service report admitted that it had no way of determining the number of agencies, boards and commissions created under the new health care law. "The law says a lot about some of them and a little about many, and merely mentions a few. Some have been authorized without any instructions on who is to appoint whom, when that might happen and who will pay." Republicans count at least 47 new bureaucratic entities in the hurried legislation, but the bill itself admits the precise number is "unknowable.”
The bureaucratic morass boggles the mind and makes it more probable that this bill will either be repealed or starved of cash as the public opposition grows.
