    Is it capitalism to want government to subsidise companies but not the poor?

    Maybe the government should phase out the taxpayer subsidies to the private sector and build the capability to provide services itself. Cut out the middleperson, leave the private sector to look after the well off. Good idea?

    Bear in mind a lot of care providers are small and local, and some have already closed or have been sold on.
