[Osiris]

It's doesn't logically follow that every business that has internal inefficiencies will stop making a profit. They may make less profit than they could if they were more efficient. My father-in-law works for a very large corporation and he's always complaining about the wasted time to get simple tasks done, but they aren't going out of business any time soon.

Every company I've worked at with lots of red tape got there because they were actually trying to solve a problem due to the lack of "regulations" or rules.
