HOW CAN A GOVERNMENT BE INTERESTED IN YOUR WELL-BEING?

It cannot.
A government, by design, is not a living, feeling being.
It is a system.
And every system is built to serve its own survival, not yours.
Let’s break it down:
---
1. GOVERNMENT’S FIRST DUTY IS TO ITSELF
The government’s main goal is to maintain control, ensure obedience, and collect resources (mostly in the form of taxes, votes, and silence).
Your well-being is only considered if it contributes to these goals.
---
2. WELL-BEING IS UNMEASURABLE. PRODUCTIVITY IS.
Governments don’t care how you feel.
They care about whether:
You go to work.
You consume.
You obey rules.
You don’t rebel.
You pay taxes.
You vote.
If you can perform these tasks, you're labeled “well.”
Even if you're depressed, sick, or lost.

3. IF GOVERNMENTS CARED, POVERTY WOULD HAVE ENDED
Any system with so much power, data, and money could wipe out hunger and homelessness.
But poverty and disease are useful:
Poor people vote more emotionally.
Ill people depend more on the system.
Fearful citizens don't revolt.
So governments may give out relief only enough to prevent rebellion, never enough to create freedom.

4. GOVERNMENTS NEED YOU TO NEED THEM
They create dependence:
Schooling trains you to believe they know best.
Healthcare ensures you rely on their approval for healing.
Laws make you fear doing anything without permission.
If you were truly well — physically, emotionally, and spiritually —
you would become self-reliant,
and no longer need them.
That is the government’s nightmare.
---
5. WHEN PEOPLE ACTUALLY HEAL, GOVERNMENTS INTERFERE
Natural healers are raided or banned.
Off-grid living is made illegal.
Home education is restricted.
Traditional knowledge is dismissed.
Farmers are told what to grow and how.
Why?
Because real well-being creates free individuals.
And free individuals don’t obey easily.
---
CONCLUSION: YOU ARE A RESOURCE, NOT A HUMAN
The government wants:
Your labour
Your money
Your vote
Your compliance
If caring for your health helps them get these things, they will pretend to care.
But when you truly start living freely,
they will reveal their true interest: control.
