A '''bureaucracy''' is an organization run by a large number of people working together through a complex hierarchy. It takes time for a bureaucracy to come to decisions because there are many people who need to understand the issues at hand. There are many rules to make sure no one jumps to conclusions. It is very methodical and careful. Each individual has his own jurisdiction and office.
A '''bureaucracy''' is an organization run by a large number of people working together through a complex hierarchy. It takes time for a bureaucracy to come to decisions because there are many people who need to understand the issues at hand. There are many rules to make sure no one jumps to conclusions. It is very methodical and careful. Each individual has his own jurisdiction and office. The [[Executive Branch]] of the U.S. [[Federal government]] uses an extremely large bureaucracy to manage many of its departments.
Examples of bureaucracy include the [[administrative state]], [[deep state]], [[welfare state]], [[nanny state]], and the [[police state]]. [[Conservative]]s generally oppose government bureaucracy, instead favoring [[limited government]] and [[self-governance]].
