Your examples are "with oversight" via environmental regulations and quality regulations.
- briandear 9y agoIs anyone actually advocating an abolishment of laws? No privatization advocate is suggesting no laws at all.
- mseebach 9y agoThat's a goalpost on wheels. Anyway, it doesn't change the fact that the GP offered than even under the same regulations, public facilities perform significantly worse than private ones.
- tdb7893 9y agoWhen privatization works it is good but it doesn't always work. The current cable industry seems to be just exploiting a monopoly so I think "privatization" has already failed here
- twoodfin 9y agoSo your cable broadband service has been stagnant for a decade? Mine has gotten about 10x faster for roughly the same cost.
- tdb7893 9y agoI only have 1 possible cable provider and it's pretty expensive and their service is terrible. It's gotten better in they last 10 years but that doesn't mean that it is a competitive market. EDIT: Maybe it's changed but when I checked last they had low customer satisfaction but really high profits, which is bad for consumers and (I'm not an expert here so take with a grain of salt) would be really unlikely if the market was competitive at all
