Earlier this year Australians went to a referendum. Under Normal conditions, the sitting Australian Government funds a marketing campaign for a $$YES$$ and a $$NO$$ case in order to allow people to properly make up their minds and decide to vote yes or no$.$ However, the current government funded only to the $$YES$$ case.

Question: From a marketing perspective, what was wrong or unethical about the government$$s approach with regard to the entire population of Australia, decision making processes and principles of democracy $?$
