Well Ted its hard to get funding for an agency which in essence is to prevent attacks on the US unless there are threats. Much like the CIA and the Armed Forces.
The whole underlying key point is the Military Industrial Complex. The rest is just details.
Barry Soetoro is a racist who hates little brown people, that's why he keeps killing them.
Ahhh, self-perpetuation. Works for the DEA too.
Actually, first Anon, the primary purpose of any government agency/department/boondoggle is self-perpetuation.

Grouchy,
The primary purpose of a business (forget this "corporation" nonsense: it works the same way for Oracle as it does for the Avon saleswoman) is to stay afloat by being economically viable.

Grouchy,
A corporation is a legal structure. A corporation is not evil or bad. Perhaps you meant "business". A business needs to provide a needed product or service otherwise it will cease to exist. Government agencies do not need to do any of the above. They just continue to exist, lethargically so.
A business needs to provide a needed product or service otherwise it will cease to exist.

I'm assuming this refers to the North Carolina honky redneck jihadis exposed a couple months ago...
