Similar thing happened to German telecommunication infrastructure (for an industry nation our internet is notoriously bad in compatison to EU neighbours), happened to our public transport infrastructure, especially to our trains, and is currently happening to our hospitals.

Privatizing critical infrastructure has never been a good idea.

It's a good thing that the train infrastructure is now for the common good (gemeinwohlorientiert) and can finally renovate everything.

Don't get me wrong: the trains are still for profit

(West-)German telecom was a government monopoly run by the mail service and it was terrible.
