What is Democracy! A social and political framework where by The People come together to elect, via free and fair elections, candidates they choose to represent them in the coming government. Those candidates who receive the majority of votes, win, they then come together to form a government – generally speaking. In short, a democracy is a “government by the people“.
Why is this relevant? If non-elected bureaucrats are making rules that erode your rights, then do we really live in a democracy?
In short and in general, a government holds a lot of power. Which is why there are three branches of the government to help separate those powers so we don’t become a dictatorship! There is the Legislative, Executive and Judicial branches of power who are all governed by their country’s Constitution. [1, 2, 3]
But it seems that’s not been enough to protect us from over reach.
So “the government” is formed through a democratic election process, but the running of the government is carried out by various administrative department units made up of un-elected public servants – The Administrative State made up of bureaucrats. These are the Permanent Class!
Bureaucrat:
Bureau = “specialized administrative unit”
-crat = an “advocate or partisan of a (specified) theory of government”
Administrative State
“The administrative state is a term used to describe the phenomenon of executive branch administrative agencies exercising the power to create, adjudicate, and enforce their own rules.” – SOURCE
The department administrators advise and steer decisions relevant to their respective agency, these public servants execute all procedures within their agency – they are the Red Tape posse! They form a big part of The Swamp!
The Canberra Swamp!
March 10, 2022 – Pauline Hansen’s “Please Explain The Swamp” was created by Stepmates and in 1 minute 43 seconds The Swamp is explained is super simple terms! – WATCH, MORE
From the script: The Canberra Swamp is full of bureaucrats. They are un-elected officials created by former governments and Parliament house. Even when government changes, the bureaucrats stay the same.
They’ll create problems to solve just so you give them more money…but the problems never get solved!
If you try to “drain the swamp”, the bureaucrats will throw mud at you and eat you alive!
It’s going to take a very brave government to clean up this mess.
The DC Swamp!
In the US there are 432 Agencies in which about 3 million people work for them, this could be as many as 9 million! – SOURCE, SOURCE

How much power should unelected administrative heads of government agencies/departments have?
Do they have the right or authority to impose rule on a populations?
Health bureaucrats have executed massive control since the pandemic began in 2020 all with minimal to no accountability. The pandemic has awakened the masses to what is at stake, but still many are oblivious to the fundamental threats picking away at our societies, disguised as “for the greater good”. As more people begin to question what the heck is going on, the threat can be stifled – but we need some legislative changes.
We are now seeing the bureaucrats who promote the Climate Change “sustainable development goals” they too are getting into the game! Just look at the Dutch Farmers and now the Canadian Farmers…

- These agencies have a tremendous amount of power…the career people are experts in those areas” the political appointees are kind of at the behest of the career staff who kind of run the place.”

Its implications, however, are profound and alarming. It gives those in power the authority to fire more or less at will as many as tens of thousands of workers currently in the competitive civil service, from managers to lawyers to economists to, yes, scientists.”…”who are really the greatest strength of the U.S. government”.
