Privatization: a cure for our ailing infrastructure?

Article Abstract:

Privatization is an effective way of providing necessary services, generally provided by the government, and overcoming the problem of shrinking federal, state and local budgets and ailing infrastructure. The government should play the role of a prudent purchaser and a manager of the services offered by the private sector. Privatization faces resistance from the public as they fear an elimination of their services. It is essential to inform people that privatization aims at creating a market-driven partnership for the betterment of the taxpayers in the U.S..
