Because I think the alternatives are worse or don’t work at the extremes. Lesser of two evils kind of deal. If I can be convinced that the alternatives would work, I’d be willing to change my mind.
Privately owned military doesn’t make sense. Privately owned diplomats don’t make sense. Having all transportation and transportation infrastructure be privately owned doesn’t make sense.
I think you guys think that I am arguing for socialism. Even if 0.01% of transportation should be public, with 99.99% being privately owned, that still justifies taxation. And you are better off for it. Same thing applies to healthcare too.
