True, but it wasn’t always mostly unelected officials. The bureaucracy (at least in the USA) expanded over time. Most of the posts that mattered used to be elected and local. Now local elections barely matter in the face of giant unelected federal organizations.

For that to happen elected officials had to voluntarily relinquish their power to regulatory organizations. That in itself should raise eyebrows.
