The monopolies set their price high, politicians reap the rewards and were forced to take it and like it, or go without. Other monopolies that doing business in this manner are electric companies, transportation and telephone companies.

The company at hat served the public best would be favored in a competitive situation C. My opinion is that there should be a balance between competition and government involvement. A competitive situation would keep utility employees striving to satisfy the needs of their customer. Without competition some employees could become indifferent to customer satisfaction as the customer can not go anywhere else. Government involvement would be important by setting standards that must be adhered to by competing companies as far as level of service and also ensure that the competing companies can not fix pricing to consumers and artificially control what the consumer will
The reason for why governments in developing countries sometimes are unable or unwilling to implement polices that create favorable conditions for economic growth boils down to two main reasons: social issues and political issues. Political issues are just as multifaceted as the social issues. Due to corrupt governments and regimes the lawlessness spreads throughout the developing nation like wildfire. Political issues revolve around the basic needs of a nation such as simple, yet, necessary infrastructure of schools, hospitals, septic tanks, etc. The necessity of public goods is vital for a developing country to survive, maintain, and become what we consider today, a developed country.

Because of lack of information, contracting may involve hidden costs; therefore the need for monitoring is demanded. In some places for example, creating the competition necessary for effective contracting is impossible, so in practice privatization is more complicated than it

King claims ”If the Great Recession has taught us anything, it is that planning for the future by saving more and enacting policies that sustain economic growth are what will keep the American Dream alive.” Many economists believe that rather than having the resources divided among different competing groups, individuals should be giving unregulated economic freedom to selfishly improve their lot and eventually their efforts would trickle down to the rest of society.
