<p>Bostdad, I love your belief that the free market will cure all ills. I subscribe to the view that certain assets need to have government involvement despite the problems that brings. They include, among others, physical infrastructure, education, healthcare and scientific research. I don’t trust the free market to do what’s best for the greatest number of people in those areas, I only trust it to do what’s best to drive profit for a tiny shareholder group.</p>
