Brazil did it in late 90's. The Privatization of Public Services In Brazil, 1996 kucinski.com.br I, in 1998, during the auction of the state owned Teledonkeys (stateowned telecom companies), I watched live on TV. I promised I would open a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon to celebrate the end of the state owned era in telecoms. Outside the Stock Exchange, the employees of the state owned teledonkeys protested gainst the privatization. One decade of working for vendors to the teledonkeys came back to my mind and I urged the security forces to let the German shefferd dogs loose on the protesters and the police to beat them. I shouted: Bate! Bate! As I did, Experiment my daughter (then 2 and a half years old) started urging them too. Saying: Bate! Bate! and the tear gas canister flew as I drunk the Cabernet Sauvignon. Oh, my friend they deserved all that they got that bunch of son of bitches.
