Confidence in “planners” fades.
The more the planners improvise, the greater the disturbance to normal business.
Everybody suffers. People now feel – rightly – that “planners” can't get things done.

< The road to serfdom – Cartoon 9 >
This cartoon, the 9th in 'The Road to Serfdom,' emphasizes the declining trust in planners. It highlights that as planners attempt to improve their plans, they cause greater disruption to everyday business, leading to suffering for everyone. As a result, people now feel that planners are incapable of handling tasks. The final sentence, 'Let's get a man who can make a plan work,' demands finding someone capable of executing plans, indicating a questioning of planners' abilities and a willingness to seek alternatives.
