  Manhattan Institute Fights Privatization The Manhattan Institute's Nicole Gelinas has a piece blaming privatization for snow-related delays at Britain's Heathrow airport. She writes, "Heathrow's Spanish-owned private-sector operator, BAA, has skimped on its capital investments....BAA had no motive to over-invest for a predictable emergency." She doesn't mention that New York City's non-privatized government roads are in pretty terrible shape. She writes of Heathrow: "The episode shows that government should view an international airport as more of a public-sector loss leader, a role that outweighs its standing as a potential profit center in the eyes of private-sector concessionaires." Chris Christie's Xanadu New Jersey's Republican governor, Chris Christie, is going to spend $200 million taxpayer dollars on a Bergen County shopping mall. The Manhattan Institute's Nicole Gelinas has an op-ed in the Newark Star-Ledger calling it "a lapse in judgment, at best." She writes: "here's an idea. Let government stick to what it should do and return any extra money lying around to taxpayers so they can make their own investment decisions."
