@researchfairy Something we often do in land use regulation is assume bad faith, the worst actor. What is the worst case? For privatization this strikes me as a fantastic approach given the track record.

Except it’s (mostly) not even bad faith. Corporate officers are well-known to be (legally required to be!) acting in the interests of the company. They can’t even claim to be moving value from their company to the public good, or they would be in breach of responsibilities to shareholders. Granted you may get some “eccentric billionaires” who *could* go either way but since there are more players required to act sociopathically, it’s not even a question we need rules to direct them to do good.
