Well, if you're a citizen, the country is yours, and the government is there to manage it, but some assholes in power managed to convince people that it's the other way around

Even if the government is funded by money printed by the central bank, it would still be funded with "your money". Every dollar printed dilutes your money by that same amount, ie it's like a much more subtle tax that doesn't follow any of the principles of proportionality, everyone pays the same (except those with little to no liquidity and everything invested, so it's really a tax on the poor through inflation)
