Who represents who? If your representative lost, are you no longer represented? Who are the types that make a career out of power lust?
Who? What? Where? When? How?
No one represents me.
Government is just other people - strangers. So when we debate on the supposed proper, or best, form of government (whether a democracy, republic, dictatorship, monarchy, communism, fascism, etc.) we are essentially saying how much control other people - strangers - ought to have over our personal and economic lives.
According to Sartre
" Hell is other people".
Kripes! We're doomed.
There's what? 6 or 7 billion of them?

sounds existential perhaps conflict of personal perceptions
People are other hells, would be even more existential, and a bit more goth.
