> "Having the wrong power structure is barely scratching the surface of why running a government like a business is an awful idea. Rural mail delivery loses money, so I guess that’s out. A defense department "for profit" would be a decent start to a scary movie, not a way to defend your country. But the biggest reason is that "like a business" simply ignores the fact that there are values other than money: protecting people from harm, enforcing laws, safeguarding our land and resources, and providing a social safety net. None of those are business values." The end game is dictatorship, which is exactly what they mean when they say government should be run "like a business". Musk is turning the USA into XSA.
