Keeping people employed through inefficient bullshit jobs is better for the government than paying them to sit at home, since this way you have control over their livelihoods and their votes.
In civilised places, the government is the people. And civilised people know they are the government.
Like which places are those?
This is some idealist fairytale view that people like to believe in but doesn't actually exist.
