CANADIAN GOVERNMENT
You have two cows you bought from Britain and when they arrive neither is capable of anything other than costing you money. Most of the time they're at the vets. In the end you decide to cut your losses and put them out to pasture. You do however spend millions on an inquiry to see who was responsible for the debacle.

No, that would be Greece๐Ÿ™‚


a few more ...

POLITICAL CORRECTNESS
You are associated with (the concept of "ownership" is a symbol of the male-centric, war-mongering, intolerant past) two differently-aged (but no less valuable to society) bovines of non-specified gender.

ANARCHY
You have two cows. Either you sell the milk at a fair price or your neighbours try to kill you and take the cows.

SINGAPOREAN DEMOCRACY
You have two cows. The government fines you for keeping two unlicensed farm animals in an apartment and you get caned.

You mean:

CAPITALISM
Your neighbour has two cows, but you have only bull. Using this bull you force your neighbour to "lend" you his cows, keep the calves, and force him off his land so "your" calves can live there. You make millions of this and your neighbour goes broke. Then you convince the govenment that, because he is broke, he must be the criminal in this case.

If you want to spell "compassionate" as "neo-", perhaps. But that's not much different from "capitalism", is it?
