This comes from incomplete problem space definition. People that don't really solve problems for a living are frequently able to be persuaded by a partial "solution" that covers 70% of the problem. You get similar types of outputs when you privatize other long term functions.

I'm sure I'll be characterized as a communist or socialist by someone. Free market is extremely poor at evaluating and producing solutions to things that have 5 year consequence windows. What company has a 5 year (let alone a 10 year plan) in this country?
