Abstract

Greater consideration of the privatization of previously public services is on the rise, both politically and in our social consciousness. Such popularity has been the result of a number of interrelated factors, not the least of which is our increasingly anti-union, anti-government, and anti-tax political climate. This climate has created fertile ground into which the seeds of privatization can be fairly easily sown. Whether these seeds actually grow or should grow depends on a number of factors, many of which have not been studied with enough depth to justify their cultivation.
