To make your Tuesday more enjoyable, here are some intriguing amounts. You will either say,” Oh dear Lord”! or,” That’s about par for the course”.
The Washington Examiner reports that: quoting Napolitan Insitute research of national managers;

- Fifty-one percentage said Americans enjoy” significantly” to “far to far” personal freedom. ( Note: by contrast, 57 % of voters say the government exerts too much control over their lives, but 16 % actually agreed with the federal managers. )
- At the “highest levels of the review,” 68 percentage of Democrat national supervisors thought the nation had too much liberty. Thirty-three percentage of Democratic professionals concurred.
- Fifty-four percentage of national professionals backed their decision to” carefully research” a problem even if voters voted against it. Broken down by group, that number accounts for 49 % of Republican-leaning professionals and 60 % of Democrats.
The initial press releases can be found here and here.  ,
RMG Research, which Scott Rasmussen capes, compiled the information. Rasmussen observed:
The Elite 1 % have a lot of administrative authority, but they are incredibly distant from the country they want to act. They have developed robust governmental frameworks and corporations over the years that are resistant to election checks and balances. Worse still, these same Leaders own, operate, and manage a big majority of media sources, blocking out the real message of the American people and broadcasting their personal out-of-touch beliefs.

Federal employees who push papers, attempt to get a GS standing, and wait until the day their pensions start rolling can be easily enraged. And those folks exist. I’ve seen company personnel acting in ways that made it abundantly clear to me that they were aware of how to manipulate the system. I’ve also had mind-blowing conversations with people who genuinely believed the speech they were given. Of program, that problem is even prevalent among large swathes of the people.
However, I’ve met local governmental agency managers who, while they may include disagreed with me on a few personal issues, also understood that the system was dysfunctional if not manipulated, and were silently doing everything in their power to change things. Then there were the rank-and-file workers, who were angry about how terrible things were inside the state. After their retirement, they intended to make their point known. One candidate ran for public company in addition to letting everyone know they had to remind everyone they knew.  ,
Those items did not happen. It may be that one gets busy in pensions or, rightly, enjoys taking it easy after working for years. It may also be that these individuals realized that speaking up could compromise their retirement, care, and future. At age 65, starting a career over from scratch is not simple. Therefore, while some people may agree to follow the approved plans and deliver the approved messages, there are good many state employees who feel trapped and powerless against such a powerful, well-oiled system.  ,  ,

Of course, there are plenty of individuals in the private business who have had to begin life over again in an awkward situation because of the government; however, I also knew several people in the oil and gas industry who lost their jobs and houses as a result of the Obama-era power policies. The list of people whose livelihoods the state altered is lengthy. Until the state stops being the “product” and becomes a company, that list will only get more.
