Self-Satirizing Institutions

UC Berkeley needs to cut $150 million from their budget...so they hired a consultant for $3 million to tell them what to cut. Now they have to cut $153 million, but never mind -- the funny part is that the chancellor told the New York Times that he had to hire consultants to figure out his budget, because he has no expertise in organizational matters. He doesn't know anything about running an institution, understand -- he just, you know, runs an institution. I never understand how people like this manage to not feel embarrassed by themselves.
