I just wish there was more accountability and less waste. There are plenty of big companies that aren't pissing away money left and right.

This is why I oppose most major government programs like health care: Based on previous history, I just can't trust the government with something as important as my life.




It's not clear why you would trust a private corporayion either. Government is made of people, and reflects the society it exists in. By your logic, you should be in favor of self-provided health care. (Maybe you are. Maybe that is the best way. )


I am not the parent, but I'll take a swing at it.

I don't trust a private corporation.

When private organization acts in ways contrary to how I want, I can fire them.

When the government acts in ways contrary to how I want, I have to live with it.
