Crisis‐ridden water systems should go private
Municipal water systems that are unable to maintain and expand their systems should become private businesses rather than seek government subsidies to cure their financial ills. Two solutions to the capital shortage have been offered. Because restrictive price controls have been imposed by political bodies, the solution of a federal subsidy program is undesirable. The second solution, deregulation and privatization of the industry, would accomplish price decontrol, which would in turn solve our urban water problems.
