For a sweaty sock, McBatfink is rather astute. Counsellors are simply a part of the slow creeping middle class left wing establishment. Twenty years ago we didn't have classroom assistants, health and safety consultants - except where they were really needed, cultural diversity training officers, and all the other blurb that is costing both the public and private sector a fortune. All this is driven by an expanding civil service backed up by an explosion in the making of policy and legislation. Britain now has multiple layers of government - European, national, regional, county councils and local/district councils. Within those there are even sometimes parish councils. All this is costing US a fortune, it's not free - costs are passed on in taxes and in the private sector via the cost of goods and services.

It's a disease. And everytime government tell us they're going to cut public expenditure, the very next day a new branch of the civil service is announced.
