10. Kindelberger's view was neither original nor 'radical' in its conclusions. Berle's study suggested that government should be run by private firms since they are bigger than government, and have at their disposal greater resources in the form of a skilled, experienced and therefore efficient and effective 'service-providers' who know that time is money.
