Nationalize the internet

The problem with making the government larger (in terms of responsibilities and influence) is that the incentive to be corrupt grows.

Then, when your government is large, the performance of your country starts depending on having a long interrupted sequence of perfect administrations, something that is very unlikely.

The idea of government is to have an entity that represents the best interests of people, to preserve and grow social capital, and achieve balance, not absolute control.

Being a bit more specific, I think the Internet should be regulated to prevent anti-consumer behavior, but not nationalized. Nationalize the Internet means that only the country can act as ISP.
