Bureaucrats picked by the executive branch, elected every 4 years. If anything Americans have a better chance of getting things they want by picking a president who will implement their policies than they will hoping the legislative branch gets around to doing anything ever.

- dragonwriter 4y ago> Only the top layer of bureaucracies can change every 4 years It's the top several layers, actually, and those are the levels where all substantive policy decisions are made. > The vast majority of them are civil servants, who basically can't be fired. This is a myth. Civil servants absolutely can be fired, for cause, including things like poor performance as well as misconduct, and about 10,000 federal civil servants are fired each year.
