Generally a functional gov will serve the people. A functional corp will serve its shareholders.

Easy side to choose I'd say

Not completely, but there are many examples that do function up to a certain point.

Also, do not confuse functional with efficient. Efficiency is at a third place way bellow fairness and efectivity on a government's priority.

Short answer: yes. Don't dismiss the good because it's not perfect.
