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.
