So the government does nothing worthwhile? Public roads? The FAA? The park service? The EPA? GPS?
Should all of that be privatized, where there is absolutely no control available to the public? These are services that are by nature a monopoly, we can't really vote with our money.
- someaccounthere 13y agoThey do some worthwhile things, but they steal from us to pay for it. Do you like computers? What if I stole $10000 off you, kept $9000 for myself, then bought you a $1000 computer and threatened to shoot anyone else who tries to by a computer for you? That would be worthwhile, right? Without me, you wouldn't have a computer. This is ridiculous, obviously, but it is exactly what the government is doing with all the "services" it provides. Government services are not "natural monopolies" they are GOVERNMENT monopolies; enforced with violence. There is no such thing as a natural monopoly.
