Privatized cities
rdan
Here for your consideration is a private company made up of defense contractors running city governments in the state of Georgia, USA.
— When the government of the city of Sandy Springs in Georgia decided to bring in a multinational corporation to run all of the city’s services – with the exception of police and firefighting – it effectively became the first fully privatized city in the world.
It’s a trend that is already spreading fast, with four new cities launched in the last three years, all of them run by the same company, defense contractors CH2M Hill. ”
(CH2MHill is the company that bought out oil services company Veco, the company of Bill Allen who plead guilty to bribing Alaska Legislators, and was the star prosecution witness at the Ted Stevens investigation.)
