4. That's a good point, but someone else already said it.
There's no money to be made if it's a govt program. Privatize, privatize, privatize. Hell, even the US Army is privatizing, to save money, dontcha know. I'm sure it's MUCH cheaper to have Halliburton deliver mail to the Army than for the Army to do it. After all, those soldiers make about $30K/year. I'm sure there are thousands of private citizens that would gladly live in that Iraqi hellhole of 120 degree temps, no booze, no Tv, people shooting at you and trying to blow you up, etc, for $30K per year. I'm SURE the Army is saving LOTS of money.
