A 'Government' cannot exist without 'the Governed'.

A 'Government' cannot exist without 'the Governed'. A Government has 'Political Power', but one must always ask 'over what or whom'. Since a Government is not a 'Natural Phenomena', its an 'Institutional Phenomena', the issue always becomes, 'What' or 'Who' does it Govern? Of course, everyone agrees that a Government Governs 'Its People', and that a Democratic 'Government' was established at a 'Constitutional Convention', being called and organized by 'The People' to be 'Governed'. In other words, the 'Governed' created the 'Government'. Once created, the Government must establish the 'Social institutions' that will hold 'The People', or the 'Governed', together in a 'Condition of Integrity'. That's why a Democracy is a 'Social Institution' held together with 'Law' and 'Order'. The law creates an 'Orderly Social', or a Social governing the 'everyday interactions' of the 'People' while protecting their 'Freedom and Equality'. Without law there would be chaos. With Law, there is 'Social Order'. So, the next question is if a Business Corporation is considered 'a Person' by the Courts, and is protected by the Constitution and Law, why are there no requirements compelling a 'Legal Fiction' to act like a Democratic Citizen? Why does an Economic legal Fiction get protected but is not given any Democratic, Social Duties? All 'Human Citizens' have their 'Freedom and Equality' protected, but they are also required to 'abide by Law'. They are required to be 'Good Citizens', or pay the price. So, why are Money Making Legal Fictions created by Law? They create an Economic Imbalance that benefits the Rich, wealthy Individuals only and not the 'Economy' as a whole. The Business Corporation needs to contribute to the Democracy that allowed for their creation and they should also be 'Good Economic Institutions' that contribute to a more 'Balanced Economy'.
