[QUOTE]Originally posted by The_Tom: [QB] The thing is, I live in BC, where we have a publically-owned electricity monopoly that, *gasp,* manages to provide us with some of the cheapest electricity in the world. And yet, our ideologue wankers in government are convinced things will be oh so much better with "market-oriented reform." Right. So we move from a system where power is dirt cheap and any electricity profits get plowed into government coffers to pay for evil things like new roads or health care to the same model that, ahem, failed spectacularly in California, failed spectacularly in Alberta, and is presently failing spectacularly here in Ontario. The mantra of privatized-is-inherently-better, especially in the face of two decades of empirical evidence to the contrary, is one of Western society's biggest jokes. Only it isn't funny.
