Lesson 36-2 The cost of government 政府的开支

The administrative overheads of a business are low to the extent that everyone

working in the business can be trusted to behave in a way that best promotes the

interests of the firm. If they can each be trusted to take such responsibilities, and to

exercise such initiative as falls within their sphere, then administrative overheads will

be low. It will be low because it will be necessary to have only one man looking after

each job, without having another man to check upon what he is doing, keep him in line,

and report on him to someone else. But if no one can be trusted to act in a loyal and

responsible manner towards his job, then the business will require armies of

administrators, checkers, and foremen, and administrative overheads will rise

correspondingly
