This worldview kind of unfairly discredits the beauracrats who aren't awful, which seem to outnumber the grifters? From the perspective of say DOGE, there is plenty of reason not to fire the former out of zeal for chasing the latter.
I wouldn’t be so sure DOGE has such restraint or good faith. Vance said in 2021, “I think what Trump should do, if I was giving him one piece of advice: Fire every single midlevel bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, and replace them with our people.”
That's just government in a nutshell, regardless of country, party, political leanings, etc.
How does it go? "What's the difference between government and organised crime? One of them is organised."
