The privatization nuts always want to believe that there is this magical free market and private work force that solves all problems. Goverment workers do great work when they are allowed to follow through with their ideas and are given the resources to make change.
The privitization nuts try to pretend that competing for a contract is the same as competing against other companies providing the same service. It is not close to being the same, but we are expected to nod our heads and accept their propaganda. Day to day competition is not the same as the so-called competition to obtain politically connected gifts that have already been reserved to "special friends." Privitization is just a way to transfer large sums of the taxpayers money to the private sector. The customers of FSSA have no choice but to be served by the IBM cartel, whose only motivation is to increase profits and nothing else. The State of Indiana's mission, in theory, is to protect the public welfare (when not highjacked by megalomaniac leaders and their sycophantic followers. Even if there are penalties in a contract (are there any?) for poor performance, does anyone think they would be enforced. We will just be covered with the stench of another round of propaganda to explain why everything is better than it was - take my word for it!
