Hi Rog,
If you feel 'public' equates to 'government' because government supports
public interest then i can appreciate why you feel i am ignoring your
question.
Its a culture thing.
In my view, the last thing your government supports is the public.
What your government does is privilege a minority view of reality: The view
of those in power.
The notion of being supplied something of high value for free (PBS,
utilities, etc.) is alien to you because your culture wishes to know why
these things should not be commodified.
Commodification IS freedom for Americans; low taxes no National health
service free at point of use, etc. But freedom to be sold a dream and shipped
shit.
You have no conception at all do you of why your country is considered to be
a shit hole the world over do you?
Squonk.
