Citizens think private enterprise —not government — should be in charge. (Like it used to be!)

Online poll in the liberals’ Globe and Mail this morning, possibly in light of the massive strike of civic workers in Toronto:

Should garbage collection be outsourced to private businesses?

77% Yes
6255 votes

23% No
1866 votes

Here’s my question: Why shouldn’t just about everything be “outsourced” to private businesses?  (And I love that word “outsourced” — as if it wasn’t all private enterprise to start with, and government didn’t simply take it over from private business thus socializing it). 

Or, conversely, what’s the argument from the big, nanny-state-government liberal-leftists, for the government to not take over everything from private enterprise, starting right from the most fundamental:  the food supply (production, harvest, distribution, retail sales —all with government-owned equipment and state-employed workers…);  as well as the supply of all homes including the building of them, the allocation of them amongst the population, and of course the state ownership of them, the upkeep, etc;  and clothing;  and everything else from our personal and families’ health care, right down to our news media and entertainment (oh yeah… they’re already onto some of those things).
