Well I'm here to inform all of you about another government plan to keep us at bay. It is called sleep. We don't need it! Mattresses were invented by the government to keep us sleeping at least 8 hours a day so they can do their dastardly deeds. Ever hear of the term "counting sheep"?
Yep that's right sheep! Keep on sleeping......

Who do you think the government works for, mostly? Whose interests do they serve? The rich people who are the few with power and influence who want to stay in power and stay rich and become more powerful and richer, or the interests of the many who have 1% of the wealth of those rich? Human nature has been for governments to serve the interests of the rich and powerful, first and foremost. Which "We the People" does it serve? The rich and powerful are people, too. Has human nature really changed significantly in the last 1,000 years?
Since resources in the world are finite, if the few rich and powerful are to stay that way, they cannot lose riches or allow the many to gain much more than they already have access to, lest the rich become poorer, which is unacceptable to them.
Based on this understanding, whose interests does the government ultimately serve? Is it more likely that the government exists to serve the masses first and foremost, or is it more likely that politicians give lip service and doublespeak to confuse the masses into believing that the government makes decisions which impact them negatively by mistake, whereas in fact, it was done deliberately that was presented as a mistake in order to ensure the masses compliance and cooperation in ultimately working for the benefit of the rich and powerful either directly or indirectly?
Which do you think is more likely the case, given human nature?
That said, the government did not invent beds, although Thomas Jefferson did a lot for the advancement of home improvements, that old peadophile, that he was, too, immortalized on Mount Rushmore.
He admitted in writing to having sex with his 14 year old slave girl, and that is just what he ADMITTED to. She was his property, so he probably started with her younger than that. The "immoral" of the story is that it is ok to be a peadophile so long as you are a very successful politician. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely, and then they carve your face in the side of a mountain to honor you for it.
Warren Steed Jeffs and Thomas Jefferson have something in common!
