Now that might be an efficiency gain investors might be willing to pay for. (Government lacks the entrepreneurial moxie for this kind of innovation).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2546602206734889307.post-67650891949122942452014-07-22T07:45:33.556+00:002014-07-22T07:45:33.556+00:00Whilst it is merely parochial I am taken back many...Whilst it is merely parochial I am taken back many years to a comment made by Peter Lynch of Magellan fame who basically said that any time the UK or US government wanted to sell off a publicly owned asset he would be the first in the queue. I think we can take that to mean essentially the same thing that you argue which is that the private sector owners will be the ultimate winners not the tax paying client base.checkmatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03688082792316894545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2546602206734889307.post-35517833271494779712014-07-21T18:36:03.310+00:002014-07-21T18:36:03.310+00:00"If it is more efficient, and therefore profi..."If it is more efficient, and therefore profitable, under private ownership, the private sector might be prepared to pay more for it, and so the public sector (and society) is better off selling it – unless of course the government sells it at below its market price!"<br /><br />Well, no. It is better off selling it if the capitalised value of the income it receives from the asset is lower than the price sold at.<br /><br />That does indeed seem to have been the case with Royal Mail, at least according to the NAO, with the sum received generally accepted to have been (far) above the capitalised value of the income stream to the State. <br /><br />It would have course have been better to have got even more, but that is not an argument against privatisation per se,SpinningHugohttp://twitter.com/spinninghugonoreply@blogger.com
