Once upon a time,the government had a vast scrap yard in the middle of the nevada desert. Congress said someone might steal from it at night,so they created a night watchman position(GS-4) and hired a person for the job.

Then congress said "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?" So they created a planning position and hired two people; one person to write instructions(GS-12) and one person to do time studies(GS-11).

Then Congress said,"How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks correctly?" So they created a Q.C. position and hired two people,one GS-9 to do studies and one GS-11 to write the reports.

Then Congress said "How are these people going to get paid?" So they created the following positions, a Time keeper(GS-9) and a payroll officer(GS-11). Then they hired two people.

Then Congress said "Who will be accountable for all these people?" So they created an administrative position and hired three people, an Admin. officer(GS-13),an assistant Admin. officer(GS-13) and a legal secretary(GS-08).

Then Congress said "We have had this command in operation for one year and we are $18,000 over budget. We must cut back overall cost", so they laid off the night watchman.

In all fairness,audits where done and streamlining went into effect. The Republicans are now complaining it may have gone too far. (I might agree.I need more info)
 
isn't all that "streamlining" what got the US armed force into the state of unreadiness that there in now?
