    you can’t both expect profit and good maintenance. pick one, or the other. in all things. that’s why roads aren’t privatized. or the fire brigade. etc.

      Yeah, but roads and the fire brigade are shit in many states, because the construction company is run by the governors idiot brother.

          Hahaha hahaha.

          Oh, you were being serious? Let me laugh harder.

          The south is just corruption incarnate, they have anti-nepotism laws, they’re trivial to get around.

          Good ol boy network always wins.
