Of theatres and sports grounds yes...
But libraries is public access to all the knowledge we have... and no society can thrive with out knowledge and the more knowledge is free the better it does... so our society needs libraries... so no problem with government ownership of libraries :)

Now I'm would be able to live with government ownership of sportsgrounds and theatres if no private options existed (or not enough)...

The exception to government ownership in want areas:
When a want area exists and there are currently no private options (or not enough) to fill that demand... then government can start up in a want area under the condition that they get out again when and if private options can take over :)

That's the current situation in the banking sector.

So you don't think that there are enough private options as we speak?

Seriously???

As of 2008 there were 8,430 different banks in the US alone... how many do you want? :D hehe
