Comments on This Plan

The idea is slightly more general than this: the government should exercise its shareholder rights to direct the company to act in the best interests of its shareholders (the people), Lending money and low bonuses are only two examples; if it is determined that these would benefit the country as a whole, the government should cast its votes for such, and/or for CEOs that will do such.
