Form up a Inspector General corps within the exec branch whose job it is to evaluate performance and efficiency of each branch. Then rotate the people who do the investigating around such that they don't get too attached to the groups they're monitoring <--- this is how it's done in corporate America.

The left will shriek, "Bbbbbut then they won't have any institutional knowledge of who they're reporting on!" The answer to that is to hold these departments to objective standards - like say, being able to account for their money - and hold them to it. = Dope

-------------------

Excellent idea, we would at least hear about some of findings and recommendations that presently are only seen within the inspected department. An independent IG Corp could ensure IG recommendation are visible, leading to pressure on the affected departments to adopt or explain why not. Who knows, there very well may be some good reasons for not adopting, but the institutional problem for now is that no one is even asking.
