But they aren’t stable and are facing real trouble. Airlines cut flights, airports lose fees. Both become vulnerable. Private markets make them money pits that have to close up shop.
Private industry has a place in any economy. But when essential systems can’t survive the swings of markets, that’s your signal that nationalizing essential infrastructure becomes neccessary.
We should do the same with oil. We can’t yet live without it, but with climate change cooking us, we can’t leave private interest seeking growth at all costs.
We’re not in the world you remember anymore. Change isn’t coming. It’s here.
Yup. Fuck me for not taking the time to bypass the paywall. I got it exactly backwards. They want to privatise another public good.
Yuck. I can already see the disruptions like we’re having right now due to geopolitical events causing undue harm to poor investors who will be screaming for lower taxes and handouts every time they can’t make a buck. Just like every other privatization deal ever.
P.S. They aren’t just talking about ops. Selling the whole shebang.
