“Germany is significantly better than the United States, whether measured by the cost of the bureaucracy or the size of the bureaucracy.

To see where the trends are most worrisome, look at the changes over time. The total cost of bureaucracy, for instance, jumped considerably between 2000 and 2009 in Ireland, Greece, the United Kingdom, Denmark, Spain, and the United States. So much for ‘austerity.'”
