barriomulas.com - Un Peo Mental on Private vs. Public Sector

If there's one thing that I've learned from the school of economic libertarians, it's that competition is good. That cannot be refuted. But to me, the public and private sector themselves are both necessary in order to assure competition. Both compete against each other and both can do just as much good as the other. A corrupt politician can be just as dangerous as a corrupt businessman. Big government can be just as destructive as big business.

It's not about voters and tax payers... nor is it about consumers and producers... it's about citizens. That's pretty much the only thing we all have in common.
