It’s like a short term sugar hit. It puts some more money in the government coffers but, of course, what it does is it takes an asset out of public ownership and then you’ve done it once, there’s no more money coming in and it doesn’t really resolve any of your long term problems.
Privatisation has been proved is failed policy
Check out America, why Luigi Mangione killed CEO?
Privatisation could result in misusing their services to gain more profits from the normal people who are paying the tax
Why people need pay tax and use private service instead?
To be honest, it is easy to resolve if the government would like to privatise everything,
Stop charging tax and put everything into the private operators
They don’t need to worry about anything, because we don’t need government anymore.
As the government, it should be serving the people for basic needs.
If it can’t do that, just leave and give the place to other people who can do.
ACT is good idea about stopping crimes, but I just don’t like this policies to privatise education and health care, which will make NZ to become worse and worse.
6000 per person to be spent on health care, if government thinks it could be saved if they privatise health care, it is easy, just stop charging 6000 per person tax.
