In a wasteful system there'd be some factory churning out obsolete mattresses to fill a warehouse that nobody needs because there's a quota to be met.

Meanwhile the workers can't eat enough because resources were allocated by a bureaucrat last year who's got no personal incentive to see either system work smoothly.
