Gotta love when the public sector military officials and those serving in offices go nuts condemning and de-funding publicly/state owned things in favor of heavy privatization/for-profit corps. But are somehow shocked and emotionally hurt when said for-profit corps don’t find public/state stuff profitable after so long.
The US Postal Service is one example of the massive differences between publicly/state owned service and for-profit private corps. The pro-business/privatization elected officials drone on and on about it needing to be made “profitable” or shutdown. But the whole point of a public service is that it isn’t supposed to be about being profitable, it is about always having a service that is both accessible and affordable to all citizens. Any profits are supposed to be put into either employee wages and/or re-investing into making it better/maintaining infrastructure. Which is also seen in how so much of our public infrastructure nationwide are being held together with tape and bubblegum.
The war-hawks are not really by their own hands not really allowed to complain about this shit, when they are the ones that have been wrecking shit. A pro-capitalist government can’t be seen fucking with for-profit/private companies. As it would mean that the anti-capitalist nations and masses have been correct this whole time. For-profit private companies are like mercenaries. They only work for you while the profits are high and the flow of money never drys-up. They aren’t friends, family, or really members of the communities. Which also makes it fucked up that they are legally equal to (technically higher than) people.
