Friedman tem mais um altar, depois dos países de leste, chegou a vez do Valete Fratres.

Veja-se a citação:

"When a man spends his own money to buy something for himself, he is very careful about how much he spends and how he spends it. When a man spends his own money to buy something for someone else, he is still very careful about how much he spends, but somewhat less what he spends in on. When a man spends someone else's money to buy something for himself, he is very careful about what he buys, but doesn't care at all how much he spends. And when a man spends someone else's money on someone else, he doesn't care how much he spends or what he spends it on. And that's government for you."

É claro que se em vez de "government" tivesse "governance" (tanto a corporate como a government) estaria muito mais correcto.. os custos de agência (ENRON, WORLDCOM, AHOLD - surpresa!) - também existem no sector privado.

Ah pois, só a má vontade é que há em todo o lado.
