"Trains used to run, planes used to fly, the post used to arrive, healthcare used to exist, schools used to teach and there was light, all thanks to national public services. But the Commission of Brussels wants to privatise them, flying in the face of reason, fact and social concerns. Intelligence takes a back seat as we slip from the glorious notion of services provided to the public, in the name of the common good and the to the wretched concept of services provided by general interest. Market integrationism flies in the face of facts when it refuses to see that private trains in Britain are derailing, that electricity in California is cutting out, that the planes of private airlines such as Flash Airlines are crashing and that American commercial schools are leaving souls helpless. Social concerns are sacrificed because with liberalisation, there is two-tier access to healthcare, university, transport or even water: services for the rich and services for the poor. All this is led by Mr Herzog, the communist rapporteur who has become ‘party to the rout’ of economic and social democracy."@en1
