Really? I would think anyone who pays slight attention to what's going on in the world never expects anything from any government. Or if they do have expectations, they would expect the government to be inefficient, wasteful, and corrupt. At least that's my view on this matter and also the view of the people that I've spoken to about governments.

Yes, they are supposed to manage the country efficiently and fairly, but in reality, they always do the opposite, and many people know and expect that from them.
