If we examine this dispassionately, maybe this isn’t such a useful perspective. Governments around the world use their power/capacities to educate citizens, to connect people through transportation systems, to bring clean drinking water to people, etc…
Do we want our governments to stop mass education? Do we want our governments to stop connecting people? Do we want governments to stop bringing clean water to people?
In addition, a government is a complex system. It is not linear or monolithic.
This leads me to the conclusion that we should seek more of the good stuff and less of the bad stuff.

Governments are not the only mechanisms to achieve those goals
