There’s no such thing as the private sector. Just as there’s no such thing as capitalism, socialism, communism or the economy. There’s just people, always just people. The private sector didn’t exist before we had government, just as you can’t go ‘off the grid’ without a grid. Government is the lynchpin of all societies, because it’s the only thing all of the people have a direct stake in. Business itself, like money, is just an offshoot of government. Government is us, all of us. https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg21929310-200-state-of-innovation-busting-the-private-sector-myth/
