That private business deals with the consequences of my little cost/benefit analysis compounded over hundreds of millions of consumers.
The people in government, especially those in positions that don't stand for reelection have no such consequences. I, as a consumer (taxpayer), can do whatever cost/benefit analysis I like but it will come down to a single benefit every time, and one that has nothing to do with the actual "benefits" the government offers. Paying my taxes keeps me out of jail. Giving them more money without consequences only encourages the inefficiency.

It is a people issue.
If you don't want to see it happen in government then you are going to have to replace government workers with robots and indian call center personel.
You as a consumer haven't a clue as to how much waste and inneficiency occur throughout the market.
Low level employees milking the system?
F'n everywhere.
