I loved living in a city that owned the utilities. One bill covered electricity, garbage, and sewer. It was easy and honestly pretty comparable to the private. Of course people can’t understand that everything was one bill and complained how “expensive” their power bill was. They just saw the number and made it one bill in their heads.
Can’t stop selfish parasitic bastards from spontaneously occuring as they are a natural form of evolution. And constant vigilance is difficult since it also serves as an impetus to find, exploit and create weaknesses.
I guess instilling a near constant sense of activism throughout the generations would be the path forward, but I don’t know… Everything has a loophole, just needs people willing to exploit it…
In a better world citizens would collectively own their utilities.
Or no one would and citizens would get to vote on what said utilities do. Same difference.
No need to seize anything when selfish parasitic bastards can’t get their filthy paws on it in the first place.
