Aren't those agencies doing exactly what the government is expecting them to do? So yes the government isn't willing to control - because the agencies are doing whatever the government isn't willing to say in the open because... elections and other technicalities. Thus, there's no repercussions swift or slow, because who should complain? Calling your representative only does so much, and if you do a mass protest you get labeled and possibly worse. Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating a bit. Just a bit.
