This makes very good sense from an overhead and duplicative role standpoint.
Yet, knowing aspects of the system, there would be a lessening of the
objectivity of the agencies, primarily because of the political choices to be
made. Of course, there would be less competition between the agencies
(withholding information being a tool or weapon) but the guy/gal in charge
would have a particularly difficult challenge in balancing the political
priorities -- who does what best and how to preserve/let go of the best/worst
aspects. The best thing to do would be to leave things as they are and
increase cooperation between the different elements. This is the same story
with the military: collect similar functions, each under a separate part,
rather than having each service manage the similar but different pieces on
their own. One is also reminded of them olden dayze when John Edgar ran the
show and monopolised as much as he could. In an open society, competition is
good; consolidation is less costly ($$$) but all eggs in one basket, et cetera,
et cetera ...

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soap-boxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds—is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
