      What I’m referring to by “government” is the executive branch. This might be a difference in languages and/or political systems, but that’s what is commonly referred to in Germany by “government”. This excludes the judiciary branch and therefore the courts.

        it might be a difference of language but it’s important to recognize that courts are part of your system of governance regardless of the words you use to describe it, and are subject to most of the same incentives and corrupting influences, and some thatare unique to courts.
