They're already being bailed out via subsidies. They don't need to fail first. They're being set up to never fail, because the treasure trove of information and surveillance opportunities are simply too good to pass up.

Ok, but don't look at it like "free money", they bought the politicians fair and square, it's basically their monies at this point, the taxpayers are just being unfair.

Also, without the megacorps, who is gonna spy on you & monetise your work for themselves? The CIA like in the ancient times of 20 years ago?
