Its a wonder that large corporate structures are
idealized in the world today. As if
anything in the
private sector must be good, and anything in the
public sector must be bad.
The problem most apparant today, is the gargantuan nature of most institutions, both public and private. Some are well-run and serve rational or desirable purposes, some do not.
But to dismiss out of hand any public enterprise, or anything done in public service, and to worship any private enterprise, or profit-making entity, blindly, is simply to fly in the face of the very reason, and pragmatism so often appealed to by defenders of the private sector--who so often are critics of the public sector.
