Listen. I'm not making any arguments for or against privatization. I'm saying what matters right now is ensuring we have enough power to fix the country. Pushing ANYTHING perceived as a substantial austerity puts our narrow majority in the Senate (and House to a lesser extent) in EXTREME danger. And if it doesn't work, we are not only back to square one, losing all political capital, but the democrats can put out their propaganda machine, retake everything, and END the Republic FOREVER via amnesty. Compromises MUST be made.
