“The statesman who should attempt to
direct private people in what manner they ought to employ their capitals
would not only load himself with a most unnecessary attention, but
assume an authority which could safely be trusted, not only to no single
person, but to no council or senate whatever, and which would nowhere
be so dangerous as in the hands of a man who had folly and presumption
enough to fancy himself fit to exercise it.” Adam Smith.
