The reality is our government does run things badly. Why then intrust them with something this important to run?

When why do we let them run national security and the army?

You said: Contracted security forces are better and cheeper then government ones (it's why the military contracts them).

OMG, the last thing anybody wants is a privately controlled military.

Why dont we let a private company or owner run the country?  I believe this is referred to as a dictatorship, but no one would be burdened with having to vote on election day.  Do you have any idea how much it costs to run an election?
