It has value beyond market cap. It employs many thousands. If it employs many thousands unprofitably that's not very useful. We could employee everyone by sending them a government check to useless things, and then calling them government employees, but what's needed is productive profitable employment that's creating real wealth, not value destroying business activity that soaks up more and more private investment without useful return, until it can't get any more and goes crying to the government for handouts Then we are on the same page.
