Playbook!
We wrote the playbook on subsidizing industry and anyone that takes a page from it can expect to become the villain. Real error was not taking time to read the whole book:) Seriously, it all about protecting our base (corp. bottom-line) without regard for the expense to the public or that we could see a 40% gain on efficiency at 20% of current cost. So you ask who is the loser? - It has been and always will be the citizens of the capitalist nations that value their Corporations bottom-line more than their citizens welfare.
