But those public institutions only give power to individuals. Bad actors are gonna orbit to those positions and abuse them as much as they can.
Private security is a different thing, as the power given is just wages in exchange for a good service, so individuals seeking power wouldn't want to "just have a job" at those.
The black vans with federal agents that are snatching people from the streets and killing those that are opposing them pacifically surely scream of government good.
If you don't trust individuals, you're going to need an institution (or private security) to protect you from them. Police, laws, etc.

No, because people exist outside of government.
No amount of government is going to help you there.
Some amount of government helps to some degree, otherwise government and anarchy should be indistinguishable, which is obviously not the case.
