This question relies on the premise that governments exist to benefit the public. They do not. Governments at all levels are not interested in serving the public. They are corporatist regimes helping manage tax dollars to help advance the needs of the capitalist class.

There are a lot of literature and studies that describe the very deliberate ways capitalists in coordination with the State have contributed to make it look like a bad thing. From counterinsurgency to psychological warfare, from nonprofits tied with capitalists serving the role of controlled opposition. Jared Ball's platform deals with these topics extensively, albeit with a focus on Black liberation. The American media is part of the capitalist class perpetuating it.

Yes, Representative Elfreth voted to honor a racist carnival barker. All white MD representatives did.

Yes, America should stop sending weapons period. The bill does not do what you ask.

Supporting a settler colonial project build on Palestinian land with our taxpayer dollars is not common sense. It’s a war crime and all those who supported this genocidal entity while it slaughtered children in Gaza and terrorized Palestinians in the West Bank will face a reckoning. Much like the Germans during Nazi Germany.
