About this Quote

This quote by Herbert Hoover highlights the importance of a separation between business and government. He is suggesting that it is simply as essential for companies to avoid of federal government affairs as it is for federal government to stay out of service affairs. This is since when organization and federal government become too linked, it can result in corruption and a lack of accountability. Companies must focus on their own operations and not attempt to affect federal government choices, while government ought to not interfere with the operations of organizations. This separation of powers is essential for a healthy economy and an operating democracy. By keeping company and federal government separate, it makes sure that each entity is held accountable for their own actions and that the interests of the people are put initially.
