Well if you like things that are state owned My post talks about family owned businesses, which is pretty much as far away from state owned as possible. I gave Volkswagen as an additional example where there's limits on the voting rights of public stock. the government system in America owns 45% of the entire US economy I'm talking about real corporations, that in some circumstances are running circles around their American counterparts. This 45% of the economy you talk about is almost entirely pure "losses" that are almost-but-not-entirely compensated by taxes right? The comparison is silly.
