Do you think there was a moment when the utility stopped, or was it a process? I'm only really familiar with the last days of the Australian car industry.

I never thought that Australia having a car industry as a utility. When something is not economically viable, unless the government want to run it for social benefit at a loss rather than a for-profit cost center, then it's never going to be able to sustain itself over the long run
... but the Australian car industry was nothing more than rent seeking anyway, so it was a good thing we stopped funding a non-utility.
