Bussines Law. The validity of the Criticisms about Creation of Department Of Homeland Security (Essay Sample)
The Department of Homeland Security, created in 2002, created the second largest government agency in the country (second only to the Department of Defense). The creation of this agency was highly controversial in the United States Congress for two primary reasons. First, the cost of administration of the new agency immediately created a new, huge financial obligation of the government that did not exist previously and, secondly, the new agency became an "umbrella" agency that managed twenty-two previously autonomous agencies already assigned the basic mission directives of security within the United States. Are these alleged criticisms valid, or did a new need exist?

The validity of the Criticisms about Creation of Department Of Homeland Security
The formation of the department occurred at a time when the country was grappling with terrorist threats and attacks by Osama Bin Laden. The country was faced with compelling situations that called for significant policies and actions that would bolster security both from internal and external attacks. George Bush was forced by circumstances to propose policies that increased military expenditure and allocations from the national budget. The department was created from such attempts of stabilizing the security of the country which had been threatened by the terrorist attacks.
