When a state program has employees just sitting around doing nothing the people will begin to become noisy about tax dollars be wasted. Therefore anytime the problem it was meant to solve arises the state program has every incentive to not fix the problem, but to nurse it and only pretend to fix it. If they just simply fixed it those restless tax payers would start to wonder what they are paying for.</p> <p>Real world example, the brea fire in CA right now. The fire department has no incentive to put out the fire, they have an incentive to contain and control the fire, but not to put it out. Can anyone think of a counter example to this argument?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
