>Bureaucrats across the board go about their days with preserving their jobs and doing as little as possible just like in the private sector.

Your hot take sounds a little like projection.

In fact there are a lot of people who do their jobs because it's what they want to do (the paycheck allows them to do it). In OSHA, EPA, and other agencies that protect people from abuses I'm willing to bet there are a lot more of those people than in the army.
