There is nothing shit about government involvement in key utilities imo. You cannot have a freemarket in these areas and so it is better that the government runs them in the interests of the people. There is nothing shit about water for a fiver a month. Water run for German pension funds and shareowners is very shit and a rip off. It should be run in the interests of people who cannot live without it and them alone. Everybody.

The NHS was fine until mass immigration, chronic non investment and bankrupting PFI's. On its own terms the NHS is a beautiful thing.
