Why shouldn't the government, as the representative of the people, place constraints in its contract with the providers? There is nothing compelling them to provide service, rather than a different provider.

Not all libertarians see the social contract as less valid than other sorts, nor do all libertarians believe freedom of business trumps the freedom of consumers.
