so it's more expensive and only benefits the wealthy investors of the
companies that own the privatization

I think we still struggle with measuring efficiency for things like public goods

Here in PA the turnpike, toll road, can't deal with micro-burst blizzards
I think it's a public-private entity that owns it.

Replacement bridges -- most all private, and very expensive. All the info is
public - payments to engineers, managers, construction companies etc.

Civil engineers never had it so good.
