And that really shows the differences between the participants on the thread, which is fine... I simply see privatization as not working particularly well in some instances, as an example, instead of defined benefit pension plans we now push 401k's that folks are taking big hits on, and even with those, many companies are dropping their matching grants. So in my view perhaps privatization isn't so great. Just one perhaps simplistic example. But I realize many have opposing views... John
