Which Book is this (barely remembered) Pratchett Quote from?

Asked by kukuku (2points) September 24th, 2009

Hey Hivemind,
in one of his books (I thinks it’s a Captain Vimes one), Pratchett says something analogous to:

“If you want to understand (an event, or a political decision?), ask yourself: ‘Where does the money go?’ And you will understand everything.”

…Or something like that. I really can’t remember, but that’s the gist of it. Any Idea what the correct quote could be, or which book it is from?

The problem here is that it could eaaaaasily be any of the discworld books. I vaguely remember that something like that MAY have been said in the Gutenberg-esque press one…

You could see if it’s listed here or here or even here.

Darn it. Now I want to go read all the Disc World books. And it’s all your fault.

Regrettably not, but thank you nontheless.
