I have read to many books like brave new world to trust a government keep in mind goverment is meant to be the voice of the people not to be a voice on their own. If we as the people decided we needed to have people hold our hands and video tape us then sure fine but myself I would prefer my privacy. When government becomes to intrusive into peoples lives revolt happens - check your history if you question me.

Actualy the opposite is probably just as viable, French Revolution compared to the October Revolution. You could also say that the distance between government and people is another factor.

You could call the French revolution a result of government interference. Taxes and government policy screwed up the economy and then the government ignored it.
Anyway, I think there are many causes for revolution besides government meddling in private affairs. However, what they all boil down to is pissing off a big enough section of the populace to support a revolt

But the remoteness of the nobility was a big factor in the French Revolution
