Why shouldn't we treat goverment as we treat other companies that offer services?
>>80469387
The state owns the public.
Because the government does not offer services.
>>80469387
Because the state is a coercive monopoly.
>>80470722
True but they serve the people.
The true question is why don't we tip the government then?

No, it's because the government has power.
If McDonald's could force you to eat only at McDonald's they would.
The government can force you to use its services, and it does.
The government is not treated like a company because it is not a company. It is a government.
for profit company/ the goverment. nah i don't like it.
>>80470822
We do, it's called corruption.
>>80471198

A) Companies can be for no profit

Yea and Communism doesn't need government too. But Reality has proved to be a terrible mistress
>B)Private compaies offer products that represent the public's interests like food or clothes
That ultimately a means to serve its own interest:profit.
