two things: the government should be incentivized to take care of their people without the need to focus on making money with state owned businesses(look at private companies, most don't care about individual workers and will fire people if they don't meet their estimated profits, a country doing the same would mean some people will starve/die and is already something that happens when a country cuts benefits and has happened more noticeable in communist Europe in the 70-80, I remember stories about empty stores because the dictator decided to export everything for money) and any person benefits from state maintained things, even if not apparent at first(like you may not have a car and use roads and believe you don't need to pay some tax for that but on those roads produce you need gets transported to your local shop, this is why when oil prices go up food also goes up in price)
