You are living in a dream world if you think the government is elected by and then represents the common man. On top of that most of these rules come from unelected and outside of the constitution agencies, not actual laws passed by congress and then signed by the president.
The one 1/2 of one branch that is the closest to the government you describe, the house of representatives, hasn't been allowed to do a single thing the last 6 years. If your assertion was true that the government was a reflection of the people the other branches would see that obvious will and let the house lead the issues.
