Why are the standards so so so unbelievably low for positions of authority?

I'd be surprised if there any agencies left that aren't already half in the pocket of domestic terrorists.

The best argument I've read is that nobody in their right mind would want to be in a position of authority. You're constantly criticised by everyone around you and receive hardly anymore compensation than rank and file workers. It's why sociopaths and power hungry narcissists tend to fill authority positions.
