The best summary I've been able to come up with is: with something run by the government, I expect there to be inefficiency due to bloat and antipathy. With a corporation, I expect there to be inefficiency due to greed and antipathy. Now, I realize I've just made the cardinal sin of reducing a sitution into a binary solution (I generally believe that that's a *terrible* way to view anything), but given those two choices, I'll take gov't any day.
Much more constructively, I don't think the point is to get it right. The point is to get it better. The old adage of "the enemy of Good Enough is Perfect" applies here.
