    I like to repurpose that argument and leverage it to argue that sectors that are essential to basic human needs (food, shelter, education, healthcare, infrastructure, utilities including the internet) have no other option than to be socialized. If a sector is properly socialized, they wouldn’t even have the option of being corrupted by profit motives that seek to create artificial scarcity around and withhold goods and services that would otherwise keep a society functioning in a sustainable way.
