Of course---the main goal of a bureaucracy is to grow itself. A department head doesn't get ahead by cutting personnel and budget and being efficient---he needs to have more people and money to be a bigger bureaucrat and then study for his GS-14 test, so he can move on to a bigger department and waste more money.
