If they've been subsidised so much, the company should just be made a public entity rather than just stopping the funding.

The government should demand new shares in return for the subsidies. No subsidization without representation.

Yep and if they want to continue to receive subsidies, they're going to have to continue to sell shares, eventually leading to either no more subsidies or complete governmental control of the entire industry. Preferably the latter.
