Well written dennis,and yes as a ex BRS DRIVER 1969 1980 you are correct but that was what nationalization was about like all the other industries
we had in this country that all went to the wall, but so what why let one man make loads of money ,why not let everyone have a little slice of a easy good life… look now ,where is the profit, we are all the same, work ,earn money, live ,if everything was nationalized now would it be better than all the private firms having problems…
If the workers say let’s earn the maximum amount of return from the minimum possible amount of input that’s called militancy and unproductive laziness which will run the firm into the ground and it’s all their fault.
If you call it profit suddenly the same thing is good and the reason why the firm exists and it’s only right to run the firm into the ground in the interests of maximising those returns.
