Big Government

The government is too big, Republicans say. Too much bureaucracy, too much waste, too many overpaid, do-nothing chair-sitters mooching off hard-working taxpayers.
Presumably, House Speaker Tim Moore agrees. He’s as eager as any other hard-nosed Republican to cut out the deadwood.
But first he has to hire a staff. Here, thanks to Under the Dome, are some of the positions on the Speaker’s staff:
– A Chief of Staff
– A Deputy Chief of Staff
– A Communications Director
– A senior policy adviser
– A policy advisor on agriculture and education
– The director of House caucuses/policy analyst
– A senior policy advisor for health issues
– A director of boards, commissions and constituent services
– A policy advisor on transportation and public safety
– An executive assistant/director of administration
– Another policy analyst
– An administrative assistant
Once upon a time, House Speakers in North Carolina got by with a couple of administrative assistants and a legislative counsel or two, some of them part-time.
Now, apparently, it takes a lot of staff to cut down the size of government.
