Ferret said this about your mom:
It isn't even that hard to resubmit and get a different rating, except for the actual time to alter the game. The ESRB doesn't even play the games, unless it's to clarify a part of the form the company has to fill out. I believe that the cost to get a game rated by the ESRB isn't really that expensive, compared to the dev costs to the game.
Apparently they play some of the games and I'd imagine high profile games like those that Take Two publishes would be among the "hand selected" ones.

It would be far too much of a hassle on the government's part to be cost effective, especially with the amount of protesting that would erupt aimed at whoever made the decision.
The government doesn't care about cost effectiveness by the by.
