Tapu Misa outlines reasons why the mantra of private enterprise doing it better than the public service is more a matter of dogma than a matter of substance. One point she makes is the somewhat recent collapse of so many businesses that were rescued by governments around the world; she writes, "The cynical among us remember that before bailouts became fashionable in the rest of the world, we had our own taxpayer rescues: Air NZ, BNZ, TransRail". Tapu quotes Matt Tabbi, a writer in the Rolling Stone, "...organised greed always defeats disorganised democracy". In short, where is the evidence that privately run organisations are necessarily better than public organisations?
