My sense is that people realize they don't have to perform after they're in the job and start coasting then.
To some extent, that's just a natural outcome of the job security point. If you're not likely to be fired for low effort, you're more likely to give low effort.

100% and this happens anywhere but outside of government and union shops there are usually incentives to correct it. I have seen that the larger the entity the more likely this is to happen. Its not just that the state runs something that makes it broken. Its the incentives and you can recreate those incentives outside of government. You get the same result.
When I realized this it really opened my eyes to the deep problems with the state. Its not just that government is bad. Governance is not bad. Monopoly is bad. Also some things, many things just do not scale.
