Counterpoint – Crisis‐Ridden Water Systems Should Go Public
Privatization of water systems is not a cure‐all for crisis‐ridden utilities as suggested in the February 1982 “Viewpoint.” What profit‐oriented company would be likely to purchase a deteriorating system, and what effect would such a purchase have on consumers? William E.
