"I noted what it is there for."

You presumptuous simpleton. There is no 'higher purpose' for government.

"By their fruits ye shall know them."

The purpose of the modern state, so far as I can observe from history, is to exploit the citizens for the advantage of the rulers.

Expecting the state to show 'moral and ethical leadership' or anything like it must be the product of faith, since it has no foundation in empiricism.
