Description: Red Tape : Its Origins, Uses, and Abuses, Paperback by Kaufman, Herbert; Howard, Philip K. (FRW), ISBN 0815726600, ISBN-13 9780815726609, Brand New, Free shipping in the US The author examines the origins, uses, and abuses of bureaucracy in the federal government and recommendations for reform. He discusses what is hated about red tape, including too many constraints, pointless constraints like irrelevant requirements, and programs that are slow to act, and how government personnel are blamed; how the government's responsibility for representativeness and to protect people from injury creates red tape; and proposed remedies to the situation in terms of shrinking the size of the government and its activities, concentrating authority, and manipulating market incentives, and ways to keep it under control.
