I’ve seen a couple critiques of sclerotic bureaucracy lately that feel insightful but a little off to me.

I think it ought to be possible to support *as many incompetent people* as there are currently administrators, pundits, and politicians. It’s just not that large a fraction of the population.

How many competent people are there, in toto? Can you have enough of them, any more than you can have enough labor? I think the answer is we don't have many, we clearly have too few, and it's always strictly better to have more.

You’re not wrong, I just kind of chafe at being *ordered* to become competent.
