HAHAHA... And just exactly what business do you think the government is in?
Do you actually think that they're so altruistic that they are out there CARING about you instead of making money or getting re-elected? Dude, I've heard some whoppers , but this one takes it.
Go right ahead and put lots of things under government control. That way we can pay lots of taxes, but at least there's only one entity to complain about.
Instead of voting with our wallets, we can pay our taxes wait until next election. Because y'know, people that aren't making money care more about doing a good job than people that are.

a government cares more for the people than a corporation for the simple fact that they need votes. sure you can take the view that both are evil, but i'll take the lesser of two evils thanks
and so what about paying more taxes, that extra money would just be going to the corporations anyways in a private system. we don't see any extra money in our pocket at the end of the day either way, but at least the money needs to be somewhat accounted for in public office, whereas a corporation does whatever they please (not to mention having everything centralized for the consumer is a nice convenience)
i can't believe there are even people out there who argue in favor of privatization. WHEN has it ever benefited anyone except the rich? it's backwards thinking at best, and disastrous to the middle and lower classes at worst
