I also think there's a difference between privatizing and outsourcing.
Outsource all you want, .gov retains controls and lets contracts to provide the service on terms specified by .gov. We don't necessarily need civil servants doing the job.
Privatizing is more like auctioning off blocks of airspace and letting the winner figure out how to turn a profit with user fees. Charge too much, and airlines will spend the fuel to fly around your sector lol.
