@emptywheel @lyda Beats me. But it certainly wouldn't resemble this ungodly Frankenbeast you Americans kludged together.
@aryballoi Having ALSO read some corp paperwork I think there are places govt is far better at providing services than private sector. @lyda

@emptywheel@lyda Okay. Got any examples? -
@aryballoi Health care. Roads (if funded).@lyda -
@emptywheel@lyda Er. How many road company docs have you read? -
@aryballoi You mean a private turnpike company's docs?@lyda -
@emptywheel@lyda Huh. I'd never heard of those. So, since I lack the most elementary knowledge of that, I'll just concede the point. -
@emptywheel@lyda I can talk about privatization, though. Broadly speaking, it works better the more competition there is. -
@emptywheel@lyda Gov't will never be accountable to its shareholders in the same sense private management is. The incentives are different. -
@emptywheel@lyda There's a lot of difference between farming out revenue to cronies, a la Russe, and privatizing a loss-making business.
