Answer 2 [B]: "Those who work in the bureaucracy are civil servants." This statement does explain a way that the bureaucracy stays independent. Civil servants are employees of the government who are expected to carry out their duties impartially, without being influenced by political or external pressures. By being independent civil servants, those in the bureaucracy can make decisions based on their expertise without undue influence.
