    Looks like outsourcing good management of public resources to “greed” to fix inefficiencies.

    Pretty much. The only upside is we’re getting more return on less dollar from this particular instance of outsourcing. I’m well aware that’s not always the case.

    Why is some greedy fuck with delusions of grandeur needed here?

    It’s not, and it would be nice if the human race ever figures out a system for fair and equitable allocation of resources. But we haven’t yet, so here we are stuck between corrupt politicians and greedy billionaires.

      But there was a time when the system worked during the cold war, because it was tied to “national security” and the military. I just find it ironic that in a world that is so dependent on spatial products that interest seems to be taken so lightly when compared with the past.
