Zone1 Take Healthcare, Utilities, Energy, And The Internet Away From The Corporatocracy

[skews13]

The corporatization of healthcare, utilities, energy, and the Internet undermines the equitable distribution of essential resources and services. By reclaiming these sectors as part of the commons, society can ensure they serve the public good, promote sustainability, and foster innovation. This requires a combination of regulatory reforms, public investment, and cultural shifts toward valuing the collective over the individual. Doing so can create a more just, equitable, and sustainable future for all.

Take healthcare, utilities, energy, and the internet away from the corporatocracy.

Demand universal access to essential resources like healthcare and the internet—find out why public ownership matters for all.

Any corporatist that doesn't agree is free to close tomorrow. The people can handle it from there.

While I agree in theory, I also understand that greed takes over no matter how one operates things.

Total government control is the only way!

It's a great plan! Replace a handful of competing corporations, run by greedy capitalists, with one, run by ambitious politicians.

gov's job is to guide and police (by applying common sense and state-of-the-art expertise to law making) industries and scientists, not to become socialist / communist in nature!

I think the intent of the OP is to create monopolies.

Sadly that is what will happen because no one is willing to hold politicians accountable for much of anything.

They already have

 

[dblack]

They already have

Not yet, but that's the intent. State run monopolies for the win!

I don't see how it could be worse than the private sector, why not give it a shot?

Obama destroyed the private sector

 

[Crepitus]

Obama destroyed the private sector

Oh?

And how did he do that?

 

[Manonthestreet]

Oh?

Good luck trying to find a DR not working for one of the major Corps. Corps are easier to control than a myriad of Drs working for themselves. Covid con proved that.........

The free market is the most efficient way of getting things done. There are somethings the government should own but not operate. The an obvious example is the electromagnetic spectrum, the airwaves. Without the government people would be interfering with everyone else and the result would be chaos. The gov't allocates parts of it to TV, part to radio, part to cell phones, etc., but it is used by private companies. Roads are another example where gov't ownership is needed but the building and maintenance of roads is generally contracted out to the private sector. And both of these work pretty well.

How did President Obama do that?

 

[WinterBorn]

The utilities industry is very expensive to build and to maintain. The people who work in that industry make good money for a reason. Our electrical grid is too important to leave to anonymous gov't laborers.

Obamacare.
