Let’s make a test for this:
If you answered yes to these questions, then you should nationalize it.
The free market can’t or won’t ever provide a better service, and there’s no viable replacement. There’s no value in it being private, in fact, it’s negative value as the corporate margin acts as a tax anyways. If you took all the corporate profit and dividends and reinvested, you would be further ahead than privately owned.
Nice! Thanks.
