No one's ever going to have your best interest in mind! But the state is at least legally obliged to — it does not always work like that, it can be corrupt, it can be inefficient (and imposing too much control of course makes everything inefficient), but the though that it's pure evil designed solely to fuck you over is as wrong as expecting them to bend backwards to serve you.
