The reason the government is garbage is because most of them are working for the corporations. If we heavily regulated the corporations and made it so they couldn’t interfere with politics, the government would be better… They’d actually be working for the people and our interests, like they’re supposed to
The problem isn’t government, it’s corporate control of the government
Privatizing things will always cost more because then you need to account for profits as well. Publicly controlled=x cost, privately controlled=x costs+profit for the rich
Even the most corrupt government employee is only getting a pay check (no profits). They make their corruption money by colluding with corporations and rich people
If we acknowledge that politicians are on the side of corporations then the logical conclusion is to take away power from politicians. Giving them more power is just more motivation for corporations to meddle in government. It’s not government vs corporations it’s government+corporations vs the people. America consistency votes to strengthen government which just takes power away from the people. The only way to fight back is to lower gov power and take back our freedom of choice.
I agree the corporate lobbies are a problem. But giving the government more power just gives the lobbies more power too. We see that with insurance companies lobbying to make certain procedures mandatory. The solution is to take away government power. Then the corporations have no reason to lobby the government.
Publicly controlled = x costs + profit for politicians.
It’s a wash either way. Plus, when the government program runs a deficit the government has to print money to avoid debt which equals inflation and we all know how that hurts.
