I haven't found that.

Then open your eyes.


I did, and I noticed the behaviour you've chosen to snip from my post
so that you could add an insult.

Right of centre states aren't likely, by their own principles, to
retain profitable enterprises under state control. Can you give
some examples of capitalist states operating profitable enterprises?
(Shouldn't be difficult, as you suggest this is the majority position.)




The British government used to run a profitable brewery at one time.


But did they ever organise a **** up within it?
