lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the representatives of the object to the term ‘service of general interest’, for using it to replace the term ‘public service’ means abandoning public services and leaving services which are useful to the people to be governed solely by market forces. You, yourselves are forced in some cases to provide for some compensatory funding, otherwise known as state aid, for you know that market forces are stupid and inegalitarian and that they only meet financial needs. You cannot but be aware that the race for profit in public transport leads to disasters. By handing public services over to private interests, you are removing or restricting the access of those in the lowest income bands to education, healthcare, postal services and proper transport. We therefore object to both the form and the content of your communication, and we demand that public services be preserved and, where necessary, reestablished in all sectors which are useful to the majority of the people. We reject any privatisation of public services and any introduction of the concept of profit or profitability."@en1
