They pretend to be on the up and up, though, and like a liar who consistently denies lying, it's easy to start questioning your own perception that they're lying. Then, the moment you trust them enough to give them an inch, they take a mile.
Oh geez, get a grip already. ALL governments do that. You act all high almighty but you're just "high."
One of the basic functions of government IS economic control, whether that's a democracy, dictatorships and even communism. It's just the degree of how the "people" are represented is changed. Besides, if you wanna to talk about how a government "lies" just look at Trump.
