The Visionaries

Market forces alone ensure balanced development, Other forces create ghost towns, deserted ports and haunted roads, which nobody uses. Market players produce what society needs and adventurers among them perish in their rush. Others do not have such fears. For example, a country founds some well-provided institutions of learning by straining its limited resources, but those very institutions only siphon the best out of society's scarce talent pool and pour them into channels flowing to foreign lands irrigating their soils. Despite the clear visibility of the outcomes, the founders are celebrated as visionaries. What an irony!
