Re: The CIA/FBI is happy now It depends on what you call a 'company'. Look at the Interstate Highway System, Rural Electrification, Military. All of those are 'companies', and are run very well. The government is good at running things 'too big' for anyone else. The goverment SHOULD own all the copper/fiber, and rent it out to anyone who wants to sell the service. The advantage of that, is that EVERYONE would get fiber to the home, and broadband prices would be much closer to Japan (100mb/sec for $20.00/month) vs what we get now. Let the government run health care. I firmly believe that health care, housing, food are all BASIC human rights, and you can't ever outsource basic rights to for profit companies, because by definition, the corporation is NOT working for the customer, it's working for the shareholders.

One might dispute that the Eisenhower Interstate System of Defense Highways are really that well run & maintained, but in general, good points made | | |

So by that logic the gov't should also pay for my house and all my food. Funny that you would choose two things the gov't doesn't pay for as reasoning why they should pay for the third. | |
