Because this generation of Americans has been indoctrinated to believe all government owned businesses is a bad thing.
It's better to funnel taxpayer money to private corporations that routinely fail to deliver quality products while the owners rake in the profits.
And that government owned businesses have to be profitable. And even when they are (USPS) there are still calls for cutting costs...

Yeah, everything except the military because it funnels money to corporations.
