You can't run any country like a business, because nations are about taking care of people (even if it's only so they'll produce crops and heirs and taxes, like in feudal systems), and businesses are about making money.

Sometimes a really successful company maximizes profits by outsourcing their employees' ability to feed, clothe and house themselves to government and other non-profit agencies. The last model we want for government is business.

Yeah, seeing the repercussions of this in the UK at the moment. The NHS was never meant to turn a profit you absolute arseholes, it's supposed to be for the public good! Oh, you despise "the public", we might have a problem here. πŸ™„
