"More than likely in my experience, the people who think lowering taxes is good think so because they view the government as an inefficient, third-party spender and believe the money could be better spent more wisely elsewhere."
People say that, but then they privatize functions of government, and if they're lucky, they end up with the same level of service. And then now there's a middleman involved who needs to get profit, meaning wages and service get cut.
- perl4ever 8y agoI ran across an interesting book on that topic, which describes pitfalls of privatization in a balanced way: You Don't Always Get What You Pay For The Economics of Privatization by Elliott D.
