The market place hates real long term vision and maintenance.

That's why teachers are so poorly paid even though everyone does the lip service of thanking them.

Private markets are just fine with long term visions. Job's Apple and Elon Musk's SpaceX and Tesla come to mind.

But, of course, free markets also decide whose visions to adopt. And that is unbearable to leftists who want nothing more than to impose their vision of how society should work on us.

Teachers are well paid in Finland and Denmark (for example).
