I am sure some of them are privatized. They want to privatize everything, they think the only legitimate function of government is protecting property. If they got what they wanted all industries would consolidate into one company and those would consolidate then we'd just have the disney/amazon/exon/whatever mega corporation left. Like in idiocracy but with meaner spirited leaders.

    Yeah in parts of the UK (largely England) water is privatised, and that includes sewage. You can imagine that goes swimmingly for everyone involved, especially if you like swimming in untreated human shit when you visit a river, or the regulator doing nothing about these people hiking your bills to pay their senior management higher.

    Private water monopolies all belong in hell, largely because there's no aquatic environments there for them to poison.
