>It reads like an indictment of the government employee personality in general, and the rules and constraints that employee is forced to use.

Fixed that for you. That's how it should read.

Not only is the system questionable in a "the bricks may be individual defensible but the road goes right to hell" way but the kind of people such a system first creates (nobody signs up to be a cop just to strangle black guys over petty BS, nobody signs up to work in the disability office to give legit cases the runaround, etc, these people became this way) and then retains are not necessarily great.

And before anyone screeches at me, yes there's plenty of areas of private industry that are just as bad.
