The business of Government.

Government is a corporate business that in a "democratic" country everyone has one share in.  They're in the business of spending our tax money.  Government is tax representation.  That really is it, yes they follow rules that they set to insure they keep control, and protect the share holders who are the bosses of the boss but also the customers, and labour.  In general it looks good on paper because the government usually stays in business.
The problem is there are always going to be unsatisfied customers, and dissident workers because the wages are unequal, and usually not unionized.   Though they try to please everyone it's really hard to because one boss can't take care of millions of customers/employees who are also his bosses. Often the majority don't even like the boss because they don't think he should be boss.  They usually feel he is mismanaging the managers and the money.  Others don't participate because they don't realize that it's their business that someone is running, without much dividend.  It gets more complicated and rather confusing, and the customer service/HR department is trying really hard to take care of the customers but gets micromanaged, and have less and less budget all the time to work with because the tax money is spent on taking care of the competition/customers (big business) and making sure they are happy.
There is also other competition that don't work by the same rules like dictatorships/sole proprietorships, and also the lawless rogue businesses that just don't get the whole capitalism thing and try to run either non-for profits or some gangsta shit.
 Overall it's a great idea this democracy run government/business thing.  However not everyone is on the same page, and though governments like ours try really hard to take over all the other systems of government to work with ours so we all benefit they're not good at working with others and usually end up ripping them off, and/or beating them up because they came up gangsta by stealing the goods they we're selling from their customers.
When it comes to the global village historically Canada's government has done a relatively good job of putting the customer first and therefore satisfying them, and treating the competitions customers with respect as well.  Yes they've only really treated badly the previous owners of the shop whom basically gave them their business to run in the first place.  Canada continue to be ungrateful and disrespectful to them but they've got bigger fish to fry right now because Canada is a really small shop but has a disproportionate abundance of product; luckily the big store gun shop guys next door are gangsta; but they are nice to us, and protect us because we from the same block and all.
The gun shop is also nice to us because we let them come in to our shop and take what they want, or because we know how gangsta they are and we don't snitch, either way they're trying to look all legit to the other customers/workers because they trying to take over all their product. Unfortunately they (the gun shop) is really bad with money, and are very bad at customer service/HR, and have a very bad business model because they just consume everything, but only make and sell guns. This has jeopardized the whole business thing because if it keeps up: all the product, and resources, will be gone and all we will be left with is guns to deal with. Luckily there is a solution to keep everyone happy: the gun store, and all the gun store's gun making/selling competition has to get out of the gun business, take all their resources and put them towards construction/renovation, farming, and sustainable energy.
