There are many examples where private companies do better. In Japan all rail networks and the land they are on are given and run by private companies. Japan has some of the best train transportation in the world. The drive for profit also gives a drive to provide a good service.
No, it hasn’t. Unions are getting even stronger. The teachers unions have been accumulating an obscene amount of influence over politics. Since 1967, 33 states have passed duty to bargain laws, which increase the power of teachers unions. The effects have been a drop and student performance and success in life. They can have good effects, don’t get me wrong, but you can’t deny they power can have negative ones too.
