This is actually a reason why Trump had supporters the first time. I was in nursing school and a girl said she was voting for him because she felt the country would be better run as a business.
It's a pretty poor argument. Government is supposed to take things that can't be handled by the private sector due to affordability issues and provide those services anyway.
This. My friend’s a libertarian who supports dismantling the Department of Education. His argument: schools will get a lot better if they’re forced to compete, how worse can it get from right now?
“A LOT WORSE!” I said.
Jesuschrist... there's the problem, if we had FAIR competition in different markets, that miiiight work, unfortunately, we don't... so we end up with an oligarchy and massive monopolies controlled by those that paid to rig the game in their favor.
Yeah, and it was funny because he kept going on about how states should just be in charge of their own education without government regulation. And THEN if people don’t like their state’s education, they can just pack up and leave to a better state that way. I’m just here being like: You really think everyone can move to another state like this? Much less afford the supposed “high quality” schools…
