Do you have a taxonomy of currently existing functional vs. subject matter agencies? It seems to me that the federal bureaucracy currently exists as a mix of both (as you note with the Forrest Service) and it would be interesting to see a breakdown of the balance between the two ways of organization.
Great idea! I'm not sure that you can precisely classify every existing agency into one or the other. But this definitely sparks a few ideas for future posts.
Thanka, and I looks forward to checking that out! Maybe it's more about plotting them on a spectrum of some kind or graphing on a chart with differently defined quadrants rather than classifying as one or the other... anyways, appreciate your posts!
