What happ3ens if you replace the word "government" with the word "person"? (And since the cost is the only thing that matters, how much does "government" cost?

It is my strongly held belief that with my substitution a lot would get done and at a much lower individual cost. -- Somebody should have said: A democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner.
