The OP lists them separately so I responded to the specific.

But while we're on the subject: plenty of localities have public operated utilities and services that conservatives say should be private. Transportation and health care are two industries that should be in part or in whole be public.
I'm sure there are arguments for other industries as well.

Happy to have a conversation about the rest.
