I think selling out to the private sector is the worst thing that can be done. Once they have a monopoly, there is no competition and no reason to be better. All they will do is charge more and cut corners to get a return on their investment. Please remember they are sinking a huge cost ($40 million) for only 30,000 customers. Who is going to pay for that?
