Whoops...that should be "couldn't do".

True. A private industry would do what the NWS does only better and
less expensively. I would certainly hope it wouldn't simply "do what
the NWS does" as that would be a real waste.


The NWS doesn't do anything by itself; it has no manufacturing capacity. It
merely derives income from the thugs at the IRS.

In the same vein, it has no stimulus to provide a better product. That's
what the profit motive creates, "MOTIVE".

The NWS/NOAA will get it pound of flesh regardless of the quality of its
product. AAMOF, if they fall behind, they can just demand/plead the need for
MORE money and resources...sorta like the school systems. (**** up and move
up).

What's the motive to provide good public libraries?

You are just assuming there is actually enough profit here to motivate
someone to invest like the government has?

Government invests?

Thank you for providing a good verification of the statist nature of public
schools as mentioned above.

While perhaps not the most common usage, one can call spending millions on
infrastructrure "investing". Normally, I take my inability to communicate
as my own fault, however, after reading:

I think perhaps you just don't want to understand me because your
programming will get all wigged out.
