Yeah because in general nobody likes their governments. Where I live they are generally okay and they help you out quite a bit but for most of the world I would say governments are corrupt and a source of pain. By getting
into bitcoin and other cryptos you can get rid of the corruption and the pain that comes along with it.

This is something that makes me a dilemma, on the one hand I want bitcoin set by the government in my country, so the use of bitcoin can be free without any obstacles, so far I am hampered because the government in my country still has not decided on bitcoin, if bitcoin has been legalized in my country , I have the freedom to transact using bitcoin in offline. But on the one hand I do not want bitcoin set by the government for the use of bitcoin can be free without any law that is prophecy for bitcoin.
I have realized that almost every body is anti government when it comes to bitcoin and be decentralized or not being controlled by government. 
The main issue in this is that there is too much politics in it, and when we talk about politics, we are talking about the art of negotiation, and politics is not alway as transparent as we wish. 
I am not anti government its our mind set that we are following and we don't want that government's decision can give us loss.
Although if government bans the crypto currencies in my country I'll respect their decisions, but also find out the alternative of that.

I have also been thinking that for bitcoin to be accepted all over the world and having impact on our national economy we most make it transparent to governments and it's authorities. We should make things easy the way governments can have confidence on bitcoin to the extent of adopting bitcoin into its economy.

Well honestly in a country like where I live you pay about 80% taxes on every Euro that you make (I think its slightly higher as that 80-86%).
That is because incometax is high but you also pay taxes on EVERYTHING you buy, then there's taxes on your capital, taxes on any land you have.. etcetcetc.
I'm not anti-government we need a government or rather an organ of organisation to remove trash, clean up city's, keep infrastructure working etc.
Though I do think the monetary system is largely being exploited by small groups of people (in relation to the majority).
Class systems are still invisbly in effect.
But most of all its the banks that I despise.
I do think that allot of the people you will meet here who have been doing this for a while are not to keen on banks or the currenct financial system. Neither am I really.
Most people don't really understand the monetary system and I think most who do can be found here.
"Anti government" probably isn't a fair description. "Anti big government" may be more accurate a term.
I think most recognize citizens of a nation don't need to pay 40% to 50% real tax rates to fund schools, roads, police & other socialist programs. If state programs were run efficiently the cost should be far lower. On a subconscious level people recognize the system is broken somewhere, even if they aren't aware of details relating to specifics.
In the 1600's the working class enjoyed 189 holidays or days off per year. Today that number has been reduced nearer to 104 on average. It probably doesn't take a genius to realize the hours of the average work day is increasing, wages are decreasing while rent, taxes and other liabilities are going up. In the 1950s many could afford a new home, new car & other luxuries with only 1 person in a household working full time. Today to afford the same luxuries typically both parents must work full time. The dream of being a home owner, putting ones kids through college, being able to afford healthcare. All of these things are becoming increasingly difficult to achieve.
Then there are the long list of broken promises politicians have made over the last few decades. The inability on the part of the state to prevent disasters like the economic collapse of 2008, which many economists predicted 2-3 years in advance. The inability to fix basic issues relating to job markets, outsourcing of jobs, taxes, deficit, debt, streamlining of operations, fixing of healthcare, etc.
Decentralization also is not "anti government". Its moreso dividing power and influence in such a way as to make it difficult for systems to become centralized and exploited.
