Abstract:

Local governments of all political persuasions now realize that they must enlist the skills and talent of the private sector if they wish to achieve the goals of their citizens. This message has yet to be received in Washington. But with privatization, like tax reform a decade ago, sweeping the country, it cannot be long before even Congress wakes up to this remarkable sea-change in American government.
