What is interesting is that many sociologists tend to treat the concept as a variable in functionalist fashion, little realizing that such argumentation is subject to the same criticisms that were evidenced by the capital debates in economics.

Privatization of natural monopolies under excuse that market will do it better because of competition, but they are hiding the fact that infrastructure is a natural monopoly and also strategic infrastructure so there is no competition. <br />Neoliberal strategy is robbing us of our strategic investments into infrastructure for benefits of those that have so much wealth that they can never, ever spend it, or their kid's kids. They simply does not need more profits but they just want more even tough it is our society's investment paid by our taxes.Critical Tinkererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08540226813192385645noreply@blogger.com
