The real bureaucracy operates on a daily basis to provide for the needs and services of a society (police and fire protection, economic production, religion, education, and others). The real bureaucracy has inherent flaws but manages to exist in spite of them. In all likelihood, the "ideal" bureaucracy does not exist. Bureaucracies are composed of people, and people have flaws. They form coalitions and are subject to bias. In view of this, the probability of an ideal bureaucracy is remote.
