Yikes. Enshittification every turn of the way huh.

I'm sure people have counter talking points that point fingers at government run companies that are money pits, yet there are many that have historically run a profit only to get used as a government piggy bank during con/neo-liberal years and then left to die. ICBC in BC is a prime example.

If privatization always ran a profit, then why can't the Canadian government make it happen? What makes private capital human beings so capable that our collective powers can't? Something stinks.
