This is very important, and I really want it to sink in:
The "private sector" consists of thousands of separate entities, each vying for their piece of the world and your business. It's like the animals in a rain forest. One of them can fail, become corrupt, or screw up in some way and others are there to fill the gap. The damage is routed around.
The state, particularly nowadays, is essentially a monolith, and unlike the private sector they have the power of legal force. No private company can demand that you buy their product under penalty of law. Failure,stupidity and corruption, no less common in government than in private companies, become universal, and inescapable.
If you don't get this drastic difference, you won't get the rest, and your final statements indicate you aren't even on the same planet with the idea.
