Why doesn't the government manufacture their own cars? They're going to lose institutional expertise in building cars! They should also own and operate their own manufacturing facilities which should be physically secure, not shared with some 'civilian commercial venture'.

By golly, the government can't do business if it isn't a datacenter operations company, a software vendor, and a car manufacturer.

I mean, precisely, which is why some countries are rapidly turning into failed states. Too much buck-passing and outsourcing.
