>>51367People tend to turn pro-state when they become the state, the controller of it.
20 ministries is a lot indeed. We have 14 ministers, but like three are without portfolio so there is no whole ministries in their cases. Anyway slimming down the number might help with the wage of ministers, but the other ministries have to take over the tasks which means their bureaucratic structure has to be beefed up, means on whole the spending on them might remain largely the same. Ofc fraction of percentages might matter, this shouldn't be the only thing offering hope for salvation.
But this is also centralization on some level, the power will be held by fewer guys.
If they wanna save on this, decentralization would be the way, not by creating
more ministries but passing the responsibilities down, preferably to the people, allowing them to do their business without the state being an intermediary.
