Libertarianism and economic liberalism postulate an original right to freedom and property maintaining Lockean stream. Thus they (e.g., Nozick , Hayek ) argue against redistribution and social rights and for the free market. According to them, the relation between equality and freedom is antagonistic.

The saltwater hot tub are less-known than the chlorinated hot tubs and this is why many people wonder about the advantages and disadvantages of using such hot tubs. The two types of hot tubs are very similar, the only difference between them being the method of sanitation. While the traditional hot tub uses chlorine in order to sanitize the tub, the saltwater tub uses salt which is usually found in the form of sodium chloride or sodium bromide. Furthermore, a generator converts the salt into pure chlorine, keeping your tub sanitized all the time. As you can see, a saltwater system seems to be a better alternative to the negative effects of chlorine, but there may also be some disadvantages.
The issue of privatization as gone back to late 1800s, yet it is still debated almost 200 years later. But it’s not as simple as good and bad; sometimes there’s benefits, sometimes it’s detrimental, and sometimes it makes no difference.

Additionally, “under the ideological banner of globalization, America has made neo-liberalism and its policy of liberalization, deregulation and privatization a must developmental capsule on a global scale” (Odukoya 2007). Although a vast amount of research has not been conducted on privatization, there are a number of theoretical perspectives on the subject matter. This essay will therefore seek to provide a critical assessment of the theoretical and empirical justifications for privatization.
