In this country, in theory, sure.

Government is a wide term that is present throughout human history.

Was the government “you” in the middle ages with a king and queen? Rules existed than as well, morals existed too, don’t try to tie government to just today.

And even today, how is the government to the 50% of population that didn’t vote at all or voted for the other person? They didn’t want this, they didn’t chose it.

Did you vote for the gubernator in Cali? He is part of “your” government…

Go on.
