Every sector.
We haven't had dragons attack in 50 years! Why do we still need that wizard with his protective spells?
Tbh it was probably a criticism of capitalism more than the public or private sectors. Why consider the long term when you could just cut costs to inflate short term profitability.
In the private sector, it's done out of greed. In the public sector, (where nothing is ever properly funded because no one likes taxes) it's done out of necessity.
