They are evil and they don’t care about “we the people” and they continuously seek ways to exercise and impose unjust, unconstitutional laws upon “we the people”.
In short, they are the very thing(s) that they accuse good citizens of being.

The only difference between evil politicians/bureaucrats and violent rapists/murderers is that most evil politicians/bureaucrats have better impulse control and usually try to sell their actions as somehow being for our own good. The end goals are the same, though.
