Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled!
The final period of “restructuring” in the United States and Western Europe would be accompanied not only by the physical extermination of active anti-Communists, but also by the extermination of the political, military, financial, and religious elites. Blood would be spilled and political reeducation camps would be introduced. - Anatoliy Mikhaylovich Golitsyn

Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act

This was an act to end the good ol’boys “spoils system”. Instead of people in power giving government jobs to their friends or someone that bribed them the jobs were now by law to be given to the most qualified.

Carroll Quigley in his book Tragedy and Hope claims that this bill was supported by “big business” to “cut off or even sensibly reduce” political contributions from people seeking these jobs. This he goes on to claim that is because these political contributions were out side of the political control of the business. Even though it seems that the big business could just buy their people into the government jobs for even more influence - which is what we see today with many high-powered government positions being controlled by ex-heads-of-banks, big-pharma, and gmo-agro companies.
