Public isn't always better than private, but what you don't seem to grasp is that private isn't always better than publc.I understand that completely. I don't see how the MTA could be run privately (as flawed as they are). I don't see how the highways could have been built privately (although disagree that they would have been unsafe had they been). The original argument is about healthcare, and Gibbs not being able to tell us one country that has a good health care system that works well publically, or is better than the one we have in the US (even if flawed). How many people also complain about Verizon, Sprint, Greyhound, Fung Wah, oil companies, auto mechanics, Wal-Mart, etc.? Of course, so if you have Verizon, you go to Sprint if you don't like them, if you don't like Sprint, you go to AT&T, and so forth. If you don't like Jiffy Lube, you go to a different garage. If you don't like Mobil, you go to Shell. Don't like K-Mart? Go to Target, and so on.... With government run systems, you don't have that luxury often times. |
