Do you disagree with, Government is of the people, by the people, for the people?

In some cases, yes. For example, the Senate - as opposed to the House - was supposed to represent the States. The judiciary is supposed interpret according to Law, not popular sentiment.

I ask again, are you good with equating 'government' with 'people' in the Tenth Amendment?

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the government.

YES or NO?
