Making money for shareholders
My government is mostly privatized. We even hired a consulting firm to figure out how the government could lower consulting fees. The consultants found that if we consult less, we will have lower consulting fees. We paid over half a million for that single report:

Australia is a live example of the fact that they’re not. The state and federal governments have privatised a crap load of services and all they do is continue to hike our bills while providing less and less service. Electricity, water supply, employment services and more are now an absolute joke here.
“I made a meme depicting your claim with a mocking Spongebob, therefore your argument is invalid.”
It’s preaching to the choir but it’s not wrong.
Ya know what was a foundational part of the American dream? Pensions. Ya know which employers still offer them? Counties, states and the federal government.
Private companies exist solely to make the people at the top very rich based on the stolen value of employee labor while dumping catastrophic losses in the public sphere. That’s capitalism in a nutshell.
You’d have to be unbelievably gullible, naive, traumatized AND brainwashed to be a diehard for a system like that. But, somehow they’ve managed it. A deluded nation of Amway top performers just one move away from making their own imaginary millions. All simping for the system.
Looks at Argentina
Yeah, sure buddy
Give yourself a year under the kiddy diddler you’ll regret ever holding that position.
You are wishing for the Argentine’s recuperation and well being and not for their further downfall and demise that could cost even more lives than the previous government took, right?
RIGHT?!!!
