Utilities, Roads and Defense

Whether you believe that the government is too involved in our lives (or not involved enough) there is no denying that we as a  people need to work together to provide the things that we all need - water, power, communication, roads, rail, bridges, ports and security.
    It seems that if there are large projects to be done, we would be best served by giving them to a larger organization. Water supply can be handled by a local/county government whereas power should be handled by a state or federal organization. So you are left with trusting government solutions (think Flint MI) or trusting a multi-billion corporation (think Enron) to handle the project. We, the people, need some sort of oversight.
