Saying the only reason why a public service is terrible is because it was “intentional” seems a massive stretch. You’re ignoring poor management, bad processes

You’re ignoring poor management, bad processes, etc.
- arp242 2y agoI wouldn't put it in the same way as the previous poster, but if your argument is "government can't run anything right! They always make a complete mess of things!", then you're not going to actually run these services all that well. You have a strong interest to NOT run these services well, because "see, told you I was right!" I don't think there's some sort of intentional 4D chess plan going on, or corruption to make a profit, but certainly a lot of conflicted interests and bias to not make it work. That's one cause of "poor management, bad processes, etc."
- refurb 2y agoI'm arguing that government services are susceptible to the same failings, and more, of non-governmental services. So to argue that the only reason why they fail is a lack of funding is laughable.
