The privatre sector has been proven time and again to be money driven.

Thery're supposed to be money driven, what else should motivate them. Don't tell me you think the CEO of a fastfood chain wakes up everyday and says "I do good things for people". Heck they probably do, "I mka esure people can get a quick tasty meal for a good price and not have to throw together some crappy sandwich while getting their kids out the door in the morning that's soggy when they eat it, I provide thousands of young people jobs to get through college."

Most people think lawyers, politicians, and CEOs are a pack of unhanged scoundrels. Very few of them are, most CEOS for instance, really are worried about their workers. You just hear about the occassional crooks. Go look up forbes list of america's wealthiest people, it a virtual smorgasborg of humanitarians. They have to worry about the bottom line, because without the bottom line they go out of business, without a healthy profit they can't invest to expand or do R&D.

But you don't trust businessmen, fine, you trust politicians? Let's hand over power from one notoriously corrupt group to another. That's a good idea?

But it's all BS, there are very few villanous tyrants in gov't or private industry, and the ones who are tend to have learned how to fake being a nice guy so well that you couldn't tell the difference anyway. Heck, some of them do such a good job faking being decent people that they do more good than the decent people do.

So if politicians and evil businessmen are equally corrupt and evil, what advantage is there to handing it over to a group also known for doing a somewhat dull job?
