This was attempted by the former manager Alec. Alec want to two bodies:
the body of commerce (economic decision) and the body of somethingelse (gang). These were never implemented, but he was starting to make levels etc.

I don't know how effective it would be because when you entrust anyone with the power over money, it becomes corrupted and or abused.
