The question assumes the government was bad in the Middle Ages, and this was not always true.

King Louis IX of France is said to have sat under a tree outside Paris, on regular intervals, to hear whatever anyone who wished to speak with him might have to say. A serf could approach the king and express his concerns. I would not have called that bad government.

When the government was bad, it was for the same reasons governments are bad today, because they are run by bad people.
