Well if those Companies were you or me, there would no government to bail us out. The next persons/Company within that particular area of interest would come along and pick up where you/I left off, and they would treat the consumer right or be out of business. Unfortunately, within the confines of the "Human Condition" when someone/government gives us or our Company something for nothing we have no respect for it. This is the reason I believe the "free market" is the best way, barring, of course certain fraudulent, corrupt, non/misfeasance, but that could certainly be constrained in the illegality of the act, not unlike any other illegal act.
