Dear God, why?
I wish it was easier to explain. At the ultimate core, however, is a horrendous layer of bureaucracy designed to obscure unconcionable greed and criminal irresponsibility with other people's money. Just like with the subprime/mortgage/credit/cds meltdown.
Same disease, different symptom.
This little toy bear, promoting commercial (and expensive) copies of the volumes and volumes of codes (typically bought with huge wads of Other People's Money) necessary to complete a form so that a doctor can get reimbursed for service (from a private stockpile of Other People's Money and/or a dwindling supply of government funds), symbolizes it all by its very presence, by the necessity that brings it into being.

Heh. Winston would have it open and be chewing on those little pellets in no time. I'd suggest opening him up and doing a pelletectomy first.
And for the rest of you, I'm glad the operations of my federal government makes such a fantastic spectator sport. I can't wait to get off the benches myself and go out on the field. Without a helmet.
