Quite. And when one considers the many many many of Billions of Pounds thrown at the Banking System, even £1Billion to put MG Rover back on it's feet, would have been a mere flea bite in comparison to what has been going on in recent times with the Banking System. It would also have had a dramatic effect on the overall employment situation and retained skills that are now lost for ever.
