Both
The government both restricts freedom but it also enables freedom for many. What I mean by that is if we had no governing powers I suspect that few people would have the freedoms or the ability to express said freedom. Instead government would simply be replaced by the few who had the power to subjugate those with lesser abilities and conforming those people to their will. I suspect such a system would probably be very suppressive.
