I have been relatively silent so far on the increased use of "czars" in Washington. This has been increasing throughout my lifetime, picking up a few here and a few there, under Republicans and Democrats. The obvious reason being the president (again bipartisan misbehaviour), doesn't want any more oversight on his cabinet than he MUST have.
Appointing Ron Bloom as "manufacturing czar"? A banker, turned labor union negotiation thug? I thought the change was getting RID of the special interests, not appointing people with obvious biases into positions where they can exert government force onto businesses, and individuals alike. The only "change" we got this election cycle was which special interests who hold the presidents ear.
