if a thing can be done better and make our lives easier, yes, i absolutely think the government should.

if we’re going to pay either way, through taxes or pay a corporation, i want whichever will make our lives better, i don’t particularly care which i pay.

while i’m definitely skeptical of government, i’m absolutely just as skeptical of industry, billionaires, and corporations.

in many instances where corporations have repeatedly proven their unwillingness to do something or repeatedly misled/broke our trust (eg, data abuse) or repeatedly failed to even do the thing, im completely and absolutely on board with just doing it ourselves (government).
