It works for trash collection. And what is it about "public services" that can't be done by others? Or is it that they set it up for failure so later they can come back and say, see it didn't work. They are saying the same thing about privatizing sale of beer and wine in the state. A six pack in northern Virginia goes for $6.50, and you can get it anywhere but in PA we are paying $9 and you better have a GPS and a tank full of gas to find a beer "distributor". Oh, and you better want a whole case of beer. Even Corbet is not touching LCB.
