World's largest gaming convention threatens to leave Indiana if governor signs controversial bill

Quote:Competing to have you drive on their road?  I mean I don't know about you, but usually my first thought is to where I'm going, not what roads I'm going on.  


And in this scenario are we allowing private businesses to own the roads?  Or just to maintain them

 

You still don't have much incentive to maintain back roads.  I'm not sure how much cheaper 'for profit' companies could do it either.  Especially since some of that government waste -- and I'm sure you will disagree that this happens, but it does -- comes from the government outsourcing things to the private sector.
I'm more incline to think the waste comes from the bureaucracy of a hundreds hands having to touch a thing that should take one set of hands. That, on top of waste good old free market capitalism that rewards corrupt businesses getting getting corrupt contracts from the corrupt politicians after funding their elections.
