Only the ones that are profitable.
Well, in your post you posited that you were a profitable investment (by the government). I think the distnictino you are trying to make is long term vs short term profits. The government (in your case) reaped a long term profit. But the payoff time was many years, too many for most corporations to care about. Jose -- (for Email, make the obvious changes in my address)
