Reasons Private Sector Enterprises May Be Nationalized

Virgin Coaster Services decided to set the bus fares high the profit margin would go to a
small number of wealthy shareholders. If the same service was run by a nationalized
Jamaican company such as JUTC any profit from profitable coaster services would go to
government revenues and enable lower tax rates.
