These might be very simplified explanations (and mostly for laughs), but each of these does correspond to some type of real world government.
So based on just the description, leave in the comments which you think sounds like the government you’d like to have running your country. Later I’ll put the names back on them so you can see what type of government you picked.
- You have two cows. Your lord takes some of the milk.
- You have two cows. The government takes them and puts them in a barn with everyone else’s cows. You have to take care of all of the cows. The government gives you as much milk as you need.
- You have two cows. The government takes them and put them in a barn with everyone else’s cows. They are cared for by ex-chicken farmers. You have to take care of the chickens the government took from the chicken farmers. The government gives you as much milk and eggs as the regulations say you need.
- You have two cows. The government takes both, hires you to take care of them and sells you the milk.
- You have two cows. Your neighbors help you take care of them, and you all share the milk.
- You have two cows. You have to take care of them, but the government takes all the milk.
- You have two cows. The government takes both of them and shoots you.
- You have two cows. The government takes both and drafts you.
- You have two cows. Your neighbors decide who gets the milk.
- You have two cows. Your neighbors pick someone to tell you who gets the milk.
- You have two cows. At first the government regulates what you can feed them and when you can milk them. Then it pays you not to milk them. Then it takes both, shoots one, milks the other and pours the milk down the drain. Then it requires you to fill out forms accounting for the missing cows.
- You have two cows. Either you sell the milk at a fair price or your neighbors try to take the cows and kill you.
- You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull.
- You have two giraffes. The government requires you to take harmonica lessons.

I pick 13.
14 is pretty gunny though.
I meant funny, sorry.
Although, I looked up the word gunny and apparently in some online forums it can be used to quickly indicate agreement with a post.

I like chickens more than cows
#14 - The government is run by the cows.
