    The correct answer is E. S. Savas.

    He quoted: ' The word government is from a Greek word which means to steer. The job of government is to steer, not to row the boat. Delivering services is rowing, and government is not very good at rowing'.

    Savas is an avid advocate for privatization. All public services, education and healthcare should be in private hands. The government should not own any public land or building. According to Savas, the problem is not public versus private but monopoly versus competition.

    The government should only 'steer', meaning to control the private sector that 'rows' the country's economy.

    E. S Savas explained the roles of the public and private sectors by comparing it to maneuvering a boat. In his quotation he stated 'the job of the government is to sheer not to row the boats', which means the work of the government is to provide services not just formally doing its job.

    The government is not good at delivering services to its citizens in every sector. While favoring the private sector he explained that, the private sector must to lead the entire service sector such as health, education and etc for better delivering of services.
