    Not necessarily, it could also be better run, more efficient with less employees.

    For example maybe instead of 4 sets of at least 2 trash containers around my street there would only be 2 or 1 with all the pertinent colors (the company does more stuff than water)

    But I guess this is the bad side of living in a country with more public employees than private.

    That’s not an answer. In my city for example, the water and trash service are public and price duplicated from 2024, water pipes, sanitation and all that is public infrastructure maintained by the city, the only thing private in this whole thing may be the trash trucks.

    Energy is also heavily subsidized and we still have to pay a lot.

    In my experience government doesn’t make utilities cheaper.
