USA operates the exact opposite of this. We use the government to do the big things that aren't/won't be profitable immediately to set things up for big business to rake in all the benefits later by building their businesses on that foundation. Of course, all those business owners "did it on their own," neverminding the fact that the ground they walk on only exists because of everyone else.
