Human beings are going to make mistakes, whether in the market or in the government. The difference is that survival in the market requires recognizing mistakes and changing course before you go bankrupt. But survival in politics requires denying mistakes and sticking with the policies you advocated, while blaming others for the bad results.

人類在市場上或政府在做決定時，難免會犯錯。市場和政治的區別在於，市場上的生存需要我們承認錯誤，及時調整方向，以免破產。但在政治中，生存則需要我們否認錯誤，堅持我們所倡導的政策，並將不良結果歸咎於他人。
