It's a sorely mismanaged and corrupt bureaucracy that Barack Obama promised to fix in his 2008 presidential campaign. He's done nothing. Bernie Sander's and the democrats throwing money at a corrupt system that is so mismanaged is not the answer, and espcially when bureacratic administrators are giving themselves hefty bonuses and cooking the books on wait times to milk the system of more money. Clean up the corruption and clean up the mismanagement first before considering how much more money is needed....
You make it sound as if sound management is a slam dunk solution. If it was so easy why didn't Bush (or any other president) do it? Perhaps you could enlighten us with your criteria for distinguishing between mismanaged and underfunded government programs. Can you identify a government program you think is well managed but still underfunded? Otherwise it just seems to be built into the glasses you look at the world through.
