Privatize It: Reason Saves Cleveland With Drew Carey, Ep. 3
Loading...
Uploaded by ReasonTV on Mar 16, 2010
Should cities be in the business of running businesses ranging from convention centers to farmer's markets?
Selling off golf courses, contracting out parking concessions, and all manner of public-private partnerships are generating billions of dollars in revenue and dramatically improving city services in places such as Chicago and Indianapolis.
Will Cleveland's elected officials learn the right lessons in time?
Reason Saves Cleveland with Drew Carey is written and produced by Paul Feine; camera and editing by Roger Richards and Alex Manning; narrated by Nick Gillespie; music by the Cleveland band Cats on Holiday.
This is the third of six episodes that will air March 15-19, 2010. Approximately 10 minutes long.

@Amidat You know your history. I know you are correct because I do too. Thank you for your objectivity. Too bad most people are not so clear-eyed.

@studio7manga I'd say the opposite, Reason's discussion is honest, it's the normal and general discussion that bring in the flat earth society and creationist to discuss a topic and treat them seriously.
The argument against it btw is that they made a profit. So not only did the costs go down but they actually made money on it, and some people view that as wrong because they are insane.

@Amidat Well whoopie-doo, we got the best minds in the world to have a ridiculous flexing exercise over the futility of sending people to the moon. Imagine if these people actually did something that was pointed towards productivity. All costs are alternative cost
Pollution quotas were instituted by the government as an alternative to property rights on a clean environment
It's not about worshiping the market, it's about understanding economics, understanding history, and understanding science

Drew didn't say much.
Chicago privatizing? The city of Obama, Rahm and their ilk?

@xkeltoix - and NASA used a lot of know how from the German government.

@sniper6081 - there would never had been a NASA if the German (and later Russian) government wasn't heavily into the space program. Many of the technologies NASA "pioneered" were actually things the Nazi's were working on. After WW2 - the Russians kidnapped a lot of the scientists - and the US offered many of them clemency or immunity. It's the same with many industries... a lot of things were really set in motion by governments - then private capital took over. And no - i'm not a liberal.

@xkeltoix - i seem to have similar views to you. I am not a liberal - nor am I a fan of government... but I also do believe that people "worship" the market. While watching the video and hearing him say that "privatization leads to more transparency" was laughable. I worked in a fortune 500 company as well as small business and there was PLENTY of hiding going on. And if it was all left up to companies... there would be much more pollution and we still wouldn't even have seat belts in cars!

@studio7manga They should just introduce a congestion charge like they have in London, UK and make public transport more reliable. Win/Win- Better yet, get some people in to run these services that do actually care about raising revenue, then they would not have to privatize and it would mean more money for the city.
I agree that is seems like propaganda. Is there any such thing as an objective news report?

Good idea, but whatever you do, don't privatize the public transport. Melbourne made that mistake years ago, and is paying the consequences.
