No offense, but personal anecdotes are not evidence. If you are sincere, and you could be for all I know, it should be easy and desirable for you to produce factual information or documented sources that supplement your story. Otherwise, we can't take this as credible evidence.

"We can't..."

UK has had a fairly strong market liberalization starting from Margaret Thatchers reign 30-something years ago.

e.g. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privatisation_of_British_Rail

What do you think happens when a state monopoly is suddenly privativized without serious competition in the market?
