Sorry, but considering private companies are much better managed than government ones I would say individual people are more qualified than government

No offense, but there is a big difference between the Brazilian government and the British government, or most other western European governments. The British government is fucking stupid lately with how they handle the Brexit (or don't handle, more like), but at least they're not totally corrupt like Brazil, sadly.

I take no offense in acknowledging that the Brazilian politicians are corrupt.

But I take offense in supposing government is a better management than private companies. Almost all public services are less efficient or more expensive (when you look at the costs not the price) than private ones, also all but one monopoly are either government service or born from government intervention.
