It should be obvious by now that privatization and "running government like a business" are nothing more than dog whistles for the looting and authoritarian control of public goods.

I mean, it's right there in the concept... have you ever voted for your boss? How about your bosses' boss? How about anyone at the company you work for? Ever voted for any of them?

Businesses are NOT democracies. They are dictatorships. Anyone who says they want to run the government "like a business" is saying they want a dictatorship.

@GuyDudeman @gwynnion true capitalism would have no government involvement in private business. No lobby no special interest. No treating a corporation as a human being. Government which taxes citizens has one job, and that is protect people from business.
