...Public ownership (also called state ownership, government ownership or public property) refers to state ownership or control of any asset, industry, or enterprise at any level, national, regional or local (municipal); or to common (full-community) non-state ownership. The process of bringing an asset into public ownership is called nationalization or municipalization. There is a distinction to be made between state ownership and public property, the former may refer to assets operated by a specific organization of the state used exclusively by their operators or that organization, such as a research laboratory, while public property refers to assets and resources that are available to the entire public for use, such as a public park. In primarily market-based economies, government-owned assets are often managed and run like joint-stock corporations with the government owning a controlling stake of the shares. This model is often referred to as a state-owned enterprise. Read full entry

Public ownership is a good thing but so is private ownership. All companies are looking to make money and stay in business, thus they are constantly looking to improve what they do in making the customer choose them instead of another company. This makes them work faster and smarter to meet those customer wants. Public ownership makes a company responsible to its stockholders first. This means anything new or different must be reviewed and signed off before implementation all which takes time and that time could be the killer or the savor for that business decision or action. Remember VHS tapes, some big public companies thought they would always be the thing that customers wanted and needed, it was a small private company that came up with the CD compact disc. |

Any one think the Post Office Royal Mail is fighting private
competition from Business
Post.
The yank's only public
ownership outside of the
Military/government
departments is their postal
system. I think they know want
they are doing. Anyone agree?

yes. the post office is pivotal to business. When Rowland Hill started the post office, Britain was an European backwater. Once he got going, so did the country. Anyway, why are all you Yanks jumping on a british question? Got no work to go to? |

What do the BNP think of Also, what is their attitude
towards trade unions?
Do we need stronger trade
unions?

The BNP are all in favour of public ownership and nationalisation provided only whites get to own anything. Us darkies would only get a few spare yaks and lamas if that bunch of pig-ignorant white supremacists get their way. They support the "white indigenous" members of all unions - everybody else can "f**k off to where they came from" even if that means Putney, or Camden Town. Assuming we survive the white riots advocated by their legal adviser, of course. Sheesh! Do we need stronger unions? Hell yes! The government is quick to encourage competition so as to prevent the formation monopolies at ground zero, so why shouldn't they have to sing to the same tune? Strong unions effectively break the monopoly held by the government; they force the stuffed shirts to sit up and pay attention to what the little people are saying instead of strutting around like the arrogant peasants that they truly are. But none of this has anything at all to do with the idiot BNP. |
