This is great. Coase Theorem explains governments as naturally large corporations, or at least an entity similar to a for profit corporation. Brilliant. Yes, governments create laws; unlike other corporations, they have surpassed the threshold of size (not sure whether to measure that as number of employees, money, information, etc) and support to and been given one of the ultimate money makers in society. Laws exist to direct wealth, property, and rights. They produce laws and regulation for the voter population to consume.
However, the "inequality" on the Coase spectrum is slowly balanced out as we gain access to decentralized technology. I bet that pretty soon company set-ups, like Valve's, will become much more prominent. I just hope the same thing happens with governmental institutions.
It is already happening, though very slowly. Part of the city's budget here is decided online and via presential polls [1] since 1989, and the model has since spread to cities like Brussels and Barcelona.
