"Privatize everything" - John Stossel

Add the profit incentive to everything from kidney sales to cleaning city streets and watch black markets and featherbedding be displaced by better service.   Are you worried the fire truck from Ace Fire Suppression won't come when the alarm bell rings?  Does someone selling their second kidney with the state's permission put your undies in a knot?     John Stossel observes

"Private companies did brilliant Internet work for President Obama's election campaign.  But when it came to his health insurance website, the president put government in charge.   We saw the result.  Markets aren't perfect, but they allow for a world where prudence is rewarded and sloth punished, a world in which more people take risks and innovate."
There's a lot more at John's link.
