Bureaucratic Organizations

 
The Engineering Department of the Municipality of Ramat Gan employs about one hundred people. Ramat Gan has 150,000 inhabitants. They are open and accessible only for two hours,  three times a week. The rest of the time they are very busy with themselves. They never have time. I cannot get a small project through now for six months. The water department is an independent sovereign entity. About 1.5% of the total population "works" for the municipality. That is, about 5% of the working age population. The 98.5% pays their salaries. Twenty years ago the dept. employed about ten persons. The population did not increase.
