I always thought when the US government saved the US banks in 2008 financial crisis they should have received equity, keep the banks afloat but dilute the hell out of the existing shareholders, and then 4-5 years later after all the stock prices had rebounded sell the equity, make big profits, and voila saving the banks = a money maker.

I have no problem with the government taking stakes in companies as long as they resist the urge to get involved with management decisions. That's a big if, but there's nothing wrong with another silent shareholder partner that also wants the same thing we want - a higher share price.
