Given the general negativity (often deserved) towards government by entrepreneurs it's important to acknowledge when they do positive things.

This is far more like undoing a negative thing. Relatively, it's positive, but it's starting from a bad position that was the result of the government's actions to begin with.

Positivity is always relative. You can always frame the government's actions as negative as long as you put the zero point somewhere besides where they are now.
