    The question of whether or not government is evil is a difficult one to answer. Depending on your political, religious, ethnic and a myriad of other factors you may feel one way or the other about it. Someone who has had a rough life that they could blame on the government would probably say that the government was evil, whereas someone who had prospered in life due to government would surely say that it was a grand system. Ultimately, as Hartmann tells us "government is us," so depending on the ambitions of the people in control at the time the government could go either way.
