Who is really running the Government

We should blame all of the Politicians for not having the capability to control things, but they have very little influence on the day to day annoyances of big government.  The government is run by the bureaucrats that control what the politicians see and are told.  This would be OK if the "crats" were intelligent, non political, individuals.  But of course they aren't  .....  the government was the first employer to change the hiring requirements from the "best qualified for the job" to hire "to fill the quota" qualified or not.  This began in the '60's and has been expanding since.  We now have quotas for race, gender, sexual preferance, size, to name but a few.  There is no quota for "best for the job". 
The unfortunate thing is that these people write all of the laws, set up and enforce all of the regulations, and perpetuate their species.  They have written laws that inept politicians have passed to give themselves premium retirement programs, heathcare exempted from their own buracracy, and a " I can't be fired or laid off" program that is second to none.
The sad part of all of this is that they have spread the disease.  Most of our large corporations now have similar hiring laws as they are afraid of litigation or are required by law to hire base on the same quota system.
It will take several generations of dedicated and bright politicans to fix the system, and I am afraid that we don't have the will or the time to do what needs to be done.
