The nature of the US state is such that the distinction between nationalized and not is almost meaningless.

Like Lockheed-Martin or Boeing, etc. there's just interpenetration between the corporate boardroom and the state. They act in each other's mutual interests.

The Chinese system is just more explicit and open about this.

And as a non-American, I can't trust the US state anymore than I can trust its dominant corporate entities. So I fail to see the advantage to the world to it being nationalized. In fact under the current administration this would be an even worse outcome.

You're taking companies that work almost exclusively for the US government and represent a tiny portion of the US economy as representing all US companies?

		This is a weird contextual failure on your part. Not all companies have a concentration of power. The government has no mutual interest in those companies. Now, when you talk about things in the F100 the situation changes drastically. If you produce things like planes, weapons, and weaponization of software you are talking about something completely different in kind.
