Can the people ever trust the State to do what is best for the People, ever establish protocols that insure the People are getting what they need most from the provisions of the State?
No.
Can the People ever trust that government administrators and leaders will ever do what is in the best interests of the People other than in a perfunctory way that delivers more lip service than social service?
No.
Are the People always in counter distinction to the State, always in a position of being a counterweight to the density of the State?
Yes.
