Government Outsources Everything; Everything Works Better

A city in California fired all its employees and outsourced everything (some to other governments).  And . . . it worked better.  The New Yuck Times (!) reports:

At first, people in this poor, long-troubled and heavily Hispanic city southeast of Los Angeles braced for anarchy.

Senior citizens were afraid they would be assaulted as they walked down the street. Parents worried the parks would be shut and their children would have nowhere to safely play. Landlords said their tenants had begun suggesting that without city-run services they would no longer feel obliged to pay rent.

The apocalypse never arrived. In fact, it seems this city was so bad at being a city that outsourcing — so far, at least — is being viewed as an act of municipal genius.

Now this is an extreme case.  But what can the private sector do better then the government?  Pretty much everything.  Usually faster, cheaper, and better.  About the only thing I think couldn't be privatized is police forces.

And this city shows it's possible.  Maybe the Federal government could start outsourcing.  But what private company could replace Obama?
