    Sounds like a great example of "privatize the winnings, socialize the costs".

    According to Danish law, the option to send a letter must exist. This means that if Dao were to stop delivering letters, the government would be obliged to appoint somebody else to do it.

    Sounds like a great example of "privatize the winnings, socialize the costs".
