Why are Americans frequently critical of government bureaucracy?

They are frequently critical because they think that big government is the cause of all of their problems, and that it only invades their lives without solving their problems. But the idea that the private sector works better is completely far fetched. Because the private sector is focused on profits as opposed to the actual outcome of an enterprise, they are not fit to provide governmental services to the people.

A solution would be more oversight of spending and the enforcement of the Freedom of Information Act.

The bureaucracy is always the most inefficient and most costly way to get any task performed. If they privatized and allowed people to compete for profit in pretty much all cases waste/cost/redunencies would be reduced.

Bureaucracy is the structure and set of regulations in place to control activity. It is represented by standardized procedure (rule-following), formal division of powers, hierarchy, and relationships.

It lacks free thought and common sense.

American bureaucracy puts its own comfort; convenience and longevity ahead of its mission could be called a bureaucracy.

The American Heritage Dictionary' definition of bureaucracy reads in part: "numerous offices and adherence to inflexible rules of operation; any unwieldy administration." According to Webster's new world Dictionary of the American Language, "bureaucracy is governmental officialism or inflexible routine." Roget's Thesaurus gives equally demeaning synonyms for bureaucracy: "officialism", "officiousness", and "red tape".

It needs to be reduced. Government should reduce their size by 1/2. They are too involved in daily life and need to leave that to state and local governments. Some of the ways that bills are voted on and passed needs to be changed.

Americans are expecting to receive more benefits from the government and it is the reason why they are criticizing the bureaucracy.

How are new governments elected?

It very much varies depending on the area you are in but predominatily votes are cast to local athorities and votes are summerised into one vote based on the majororty of votes (so if 5 people vote red, 3 vote blue and 11 vote yellow, it will be yellow) in your constitutional area (EG; States or Counties). the votes are now sent from the constitutional areas to the main authority (so if theres 30 areas there will be 30 votes) and the one with the majority wins...... unless (in the UK for example) they cannot obtain more than 50% of the votes then the Parliament is hung. meaning that either multiple partys will reign or in some very drastic cases a recount or revote will occur.

This is all from my head but i hope it helps :)

What does local government receive from state government?

What type of economy exists under a communist government?

You have asked a very interesting question. One of the ways to answer this question would be to say that Communism isn't a government it is an economic system whereby everything is owned collectively by the state. Theoretically, you could have a democratic form of government wherein the state owns everything but this example would be full of structural contradictions that would undue the system.

Another way is to point out there for all intents and purposes there are no more Communists in the world and no Communist governments. China is essentially a totalitarian capitalist state (the opposite of the example described above) and many commentators are curious about the future of China. Cuba and North Korea are essentially dictatorships with the cover of the lofty theory of Communism. One might even argue that those two countries are each a Monarchy as governing seems to stay "all in the family."

It is plain now that Communism cannot compete with Capitalist systems. Maybe, as they once sought, it would work in a world that had only Communist style systems but that would be a sad and ugly world indeed. Absolutely no reason to make a flat-screen T.V.
