      The soulless structure of the government is not much different than the soulless structure of a corporation.

      Also, there is no indication that this isn’t a private consulting firm, for example.

        The soulless structure of the government is not much different than the soulless structure of a corporation.

        Very different for a fundamental reason: at least in the US, one exists to serve the people, the other to extract the maximum amount of profit possible from the people. But to your point, they have similarities in that they are both entirely constructed of flawed humans. That difference in purpose though, makes a huge impact on we interact with them, what we expect of them, and our ability to influence them.
