Yes of course they do, how else are they going to further their political views and agendas. They know if they tell you the complete truth you would probably not agree with it, so they manipulate you to get the results they want. But that is a no brainer. The government are made up of people like you and me and if you agree that people lie to further their agenda then you have answered your own question.

I would say our gov't keeps information from the public they do not need to know, but to outright lie I would hope not. I would not be suprised to find out that lies have been told through the years since the gov't is made up of people, and people are not perfect no matter what office they hold.

I think that all governments lie to their populace in one way or another. History has recorded such events on several occasions. Watergate, Iran-Contra etc etc and to think that this does not happen is naive at best.

Even till now united states of america grew to grow to be a "government", lies have been instructed. Revolutionists propaganized their time table to shop themselves from being imprisoned or hanged by the governmental government in England, Spain, France, Germany, and different countries that they had "left" of been "expelled" from. human beings vote for people who they have self assurance will represent them; yet, basically, the individuals we vote for are in basic terms "sorting out" for themselves and their very own families. i'm a descendant of an Indian tribe, federally regarded, receiving Federal and state money; yet, my very own tribal council is greater keen on the subject of the advantages they are able to in my view garner by being on the tribal council than they are approximately addressing housing, scientific care, and jobs interior of their very own tribe. very few definitely everyone seems to be worried approximately absolutely everyone different than themselves and their prompt kin. interior of reach human beings, at one time in historic past, have been dedicated to their prolonged kin, kin, elders. not greater. at present, in basic terms the Jewish community stands for unity.
