However, just because someone (some company...) "deserves a return" does NOT mean, under the free enterprise system, that they are _guaranteed_ a return.
There are way, way, too many groups, that have managed to get either perpetual gov't (taxpayer...) handouts or, the next best thing (and sometimes better) a gov't enforced monopoly or... a gov't mandated price set. We don't need more.
