Yesterday, we told you how Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced planned cuts to Health and Human Services (HHS), and the Left melted down right on cue.
Patty Murray lied about it almost immediately and said laying off bureaucrats would negatively impact Americans' health.
In case you need a visual of what the problem with health care -- including skyrocketing costs -- really is, take a look at this chart:
.@SecKennedy’s cuts at HHS send a clear message:

Less power to administrators.
More power to scientists and doctors. pic.twitter.com/yDHPQLVB4Q
That's insane.
Those administrators are not improving health outcomes.
Would love to see this chart for colleges too

You'll be not shocked to learn it's the same.
More admins than professors. pic.twitter.com/NS5FyfKRbA

And what's the common denominator here?
Government involvement.
That chart mirrors what happened to universities over that period, where there was a vast growth in administrative jobs (many of which were phony jobs) and a slowing of hiring of professors with an increased use in part-time lecturers.

They became top-heavy and full of garbage.
The bloat must go away.
I love the way he called the admin departments little “ fiefdoms “

Territorial power tripping government employees. Most of us have encountered a few. The image of their little world they rule was brilliant.
No lies detected.
What reason (or excuse) do these institutions have for all the administrators and bloat? It’s the same for public school system but our overall health is getting worse and our test scores are down, so what reason do they have for this? Why no reason from dem side EVER about this?

'Oversight' and 'safety' or some other nonsense.

Wow indeed.
This is why I pay $3,000 a month with a $13,000 deductible for my family. https://t.co/4fwO4VTsMJ

Don't you feel good about putting some manager's kid through college?
Nah, neither do we.
The pattern and results are the same. The non-doers explode in numbers and micromanage the slowly growing doers thus rising costs and making the outcome worse. It's a racket. https://t.co/pVSfHUTSGe pic.twitter.com/zqe9EDpK61

It is a racket.
The health care provider shortage is not limited to Mew Mexico. https://t.co/iXdfJhFyr7

Imagine what the funds we pay to useless administrators could do if we improved doctor and nurse pay?
We have a massive over-administration issue in this country in all areas of government. https://t.co/LzqT2KQf2W

It's also in any institution touched by government.
