Privatizing government services ONLY extracts a profit from the value of those services.

The value of the services diminishes immediately.

Privatization is the quickest and surest way to make everything WORSE for US citizens.

“Move fast and break things.”

That’s how the immature innovate and learn. Companies do it. Kids do it.

It’s easier when you have a safety net: investors, subsidies, bankruptcy laws, parents.

It's a little surprising that these business geniuses are focusing on cutting US revenue (tax cuts for the rich) and eliminating US products (programs and services).

It's as if these business leaders are putting America out of business.

Why put a businessman in charge of anything that has "service for the greater good" as its' primary purpose?

One might think that they'd only focus on finding a way to enrich themselves at the cost of everyone else.

Just thinking about all those fools who wore garbage bags, diapers & maxi-pads on their ears because the orange man promised he’d stop “illegals” from “stealing” their jobs, only to find out now that he’s gonna bring in tons more immigrants to do the tech jobs he thinks his own dumbass voters can’t.
