I mean, the government doesn't listen to the people at all and doesn't even function properly. Why does the CIA conduct secret missions to overthrow governments? That isn't part of the US Constitution, yet this behavior happens... A government agency shouldn't be conducting wars without the peoples' knowledge, or the Congress' knowledge.

I personally have no respect for any world governments and think they are all controlled by criminals.
