"تصور کردن راهی احمقانهتر یا خطرناکتر برای تصمیمگیری نسبت به سپردن این تصمیمات به دست افرادی که هیچ هزینهای برای اشتباه کردن نمیپردازند، سخت است"
— Thomas Sowell
Simplified Meaning:
When decisions are made by people who are not affected by the outcomes, those choices can often be very poor or risky. Imagine a situation where a person in charge of a company spends money recklessly because they are not using their own money and won't suffer if the company loses money. They might make careless decisions without thinking about the consequences, as they don't feel the impact personally. A historical example is when some leaders send soldiers into unnecessary battles; if these leaders don't face the dangers of the battlefield themselves, they might not fully consider the lives at risk. Applying this idea to everyday life, it's like letting someone who doesn't cook decide the weekly meal plan for you. They might choose unhealthy or expensive options because they won't have to deal with the hassle of preparing the food or the cost involved. In personal life, it's important to make decisions while considering the consequences, and it's equally vital to ensure that those who make decisions for you have your best interests at heart and understand the stakes involved. This helps in making balanced and thoughtful choices that benefit everyone involved.
