Hey, it's not for the applause; the act is its own justification.

They see the goal of good governance as to protect a person’s or a small group’s paragative to exploit any unearned advantage to maximize his (their) own wealth and imfluence without meaningful concern for consequences to but a few. So they do not think the fact that the human society overall might become more impoverished and emiserated, that other people without resource or privilege are trampled, to be a sign of failure of governance.
The other problem is that "good governance" has historically been an oxymoron.
