This is why I never understood the "run the government like a business" concept. Business and governments do very different things. You wouldn't run a business like a government and running a government like a business is no better.
Obviously there are approaches that make sense to be common to running both business and government (that probably apply to most everything else as well because they'd seem like "common sense") but, at a high level, to say "run government like a business" is one of those things that only sounds reasonable (possibly) until you think about it.
