        All utilities, phone, electricity, sewage, road and rail.

        But actually looking at these, pretty much all protocols and standards are already open.

          lol “innovation” what is this 1925?

          how innovative are the cars being produced because they look the same.

          half those medicines are publicly funded

          the Internet is publicly funded.

          this belief of private sector innovation is not as true as they sell it to be.

            This. Public institutions do a way better job and are more efficient at most things compared to private companies. It’s just a fact.

              Private just makes more money and also you can do ridiculous shit like blow up your own rocket, destroying a landing pad in the process and ignore environmental and labor laws.

            So you’re just going to ignore the even worse creative theft that would happen under such laws towards artistic talents.

            There’d be much less in the way of tv shows or animations.
