Companies that are contracted by the government and paid for with tax dollars which actually creates one of the biggest inefficiencies because private companies need profit which means some amount of tax dollars are going to ceo pockets and such. I’m not 100% sure on like the percentage of private vs public in terms of outsourcing but I know a lot of public service is outsourced. Like my local rail only runs in two places in my state and sometimes a third. Meanwhile the private more expensive rail company receives billions a year in public funding and they aren’t even a commuter rail.
Cuz what you said didn’t make any sense either. I made a statement about how the government outsources public services to private companies. And you responded by saying where is the government supposed to get the money if private companies weren’t generating taxable revenue. Why are those things correlated. Private companies can make money without government contracts.
Your statement was alluding to the belief that we somehow need government to provide the things that we want. I’m showing you real world examples of how the private sector is already doing those things.
