sanger is right. but they should do it anyways.

i just don't find this idea of paying into things to be scary, but i guess i'm leaning more towards a revolutionary left. sanger is basically looking at the situation and saying "this is just corporate welfare". it's not that he's wrong, so much as that i'm willing to support capital investments in the short run, and then argue for nationalizing in the long run.

and, there's not a lot of ways out of this, either. if they gauge badly enough, we seize the assets. there's not another possibility, here - it's an inevitability.

yes: it would be better if we just nationalized it from the start. but, the focus needs to be on building at any cost. we can seize it later.
