Nothing you listed is OUR Federal government. With any other corp, even the Bell Telephone Company, the government would have broken them up LONG ago.

There was extreme anxiety when Bell was broken up, in my lifetime, but now, NO ONE can say that the explosion in advances in telecommunications weighs for it being a decision that was rightly taken, though perhaps later than it should have been.
