1. Not so fast...bankrupting the states is the last hurdle
Busting unions is second-to-last.

3. Oh absolutely
I'm just saying, imagine how much profit there is to be had when the states can no longer afford police/hospitals/schools/firefighters/consumer protection/infrastructure/parks/licensing/courts/jails/etc.

And none of them will have to be paid a living wage!

5. All privatized
And I suspect Blackwater will handle the role of privatized police, consumer protection, and courts.
