# Why? Cars edition

Why do governments want to punish car companies that do well and sell cars that the public want, by subsidising car companies that don't do well and sell cars that people don't want?

If governments are supposed to act in the interests of citizens, why are citizens forced to cough up money for failed car companies that citizens had obviously chosen not to give money to in the first place?
