The government has a bunch of retirement funds, etc, etc invested in the market, and they took a beating too. They don't stuff it in their mattress, not the government...they invest it like everyone else.
Now some of the politicians might keep some misc funds in their freezer while they're coming up with a plan to hide it offshore, but that's a different story.
