We literally formed societies in the first place so that many people could come and work together to provide for each other, so that everyone could benefit from the production, labor, skills, knowledge, and care of everyone else in society, infinitely more than any one individual could achieve alone. Privatization destroys that by excluding society's resources, production, knowledge, etc. away from the rest of society and into the hands of a few private interests for their own personal gain. This is a terribly anti-societal, anti-democratic, and blatantly detrimental means of organizing a society's economic system. We absolutely need to abolish it and instead institute a system in which our economic (and also political) systems are owned and controlled by and for the very people who were meant to use and benefit from them: us, the public.
