I don't get why people expect the government to make their lives amazing?

Has this ever happened, where had some amazing QoL thanks to their countries government.

I expect my government to manage public resources, the economy and defense. It can provide social safety nets for worst case scenarios. But if your eating food and have a home and making money what are people actually expecting from the government?

The Saudis have oil cash for all—controversial, but it beats arguing politics with broke friends.

The precise point is that people are _not_ having a home due to a lack of affordability, that they are not having access to health care, and that rights and ascending social mobility of the past is being taken away.

And yes, government policies can definitely help or hinder in all of these.
