American Bureaucracy

Reading this piece about whether the US government would actually be able to stop paying its bills (re the raising of the debt threshold), made me think of American Bureaucracy as a mix of Stanley Kubrick's «Dr. Strangelove» and Terry Gilliam's «Brazil». Which leads to the question: Why aren't there more films made about paper pushers? And lest we forget, Dr. Strangelove's real name was Doktor Merkwürdigliebe. Say no more!
