Here's the thing, and it's nothing new: Goverments, of all sizes, all over the World lie to the people. Some of them do it better, some of them get caught more often, but they all do it. By the time you're elected to a sufficiently high enough office, you're already so owing to the people that "got you there", that you essentially are not a representive of the masses anymore. That's just the way it is.
The other option is Anarchy. Under that scenario, the phsyically strong and ruthless would roll over the calm, cool, intellectual. "Who runs Barter town? Master Blaster runs Barter town.".
In reality, for any given significant event, there's three sides to what happened. The version of the ruling (read goverment), the view of the opposition (the "conspiracy nuts"), and what really happened.
