News media outlets regularly report on incidents
in which bureaucracies engage in corrupt practices, waste funds, enforce seemingly pointless regulations and employ incompetent workers In some cases bureaucracies fail to perform essential tasks Not surprisingly, as a result of such coverage, Americans have very low opinions of government agencies and the persons who work in them Are Americans justified in their cynicism and contempt for bureaucracies?
