    You should definitely look up how China works - where local politicians have to be civil servants first, and pass exams, etc.

    It’s far from perfect either since it means the high-level politicians are all civil servants, but at least it puts a minimum level of meritocracy - and also means the “Deep State” of civil servants is clearer.
