Add to that the European Parliament, and you'll have Kratos without any Demos in sight.

As stated early by the author, any government will always conspire against the individual, it's in its nature.

Long, complex, expensive and ineffective or useless bureaucracy (perhaps the last word already resumes the other 5) work to weaken the people and strenghten the leviathan indeed.

How many medical errors happen each year in Italy due to the mentality of public employees alone? I don't count them anymore. It costs direct lives. Too poetic for my liking, but there is alot of bood in the hands of the Italian bureaucracy.

Fine, bad example, Italy is pathetic. Italy is a big colossus wrapped in cast and cement, even though the survival of the economy lies in the hands of the small and medium business, the little fingers of the statue, you have to wait more than 5 years to be able to repair the dirt road that leads to your little tourist inn. It's not historical, it's not a monument, it's not important at all and it's certainly not pretty. But, no matter, you need this paper and that form and you need to send them to that council which will vote on it and deliver the result to that other court then it needs to be authorized by this demagogue political figure and so on. Put a tax on each step to attempt to support the whole thing, and off we go paralizing Italy.
