Is your contention that any corporation willing to throw a few charity dollars around for tax writeoffs and public goodwill should be allowed to fund for profit projects with public dollars?

I'd love to leverage my modest personal charitable donations into 10000x value invested into my business by taxpayers. Maybe I will move back to Alberta after all!
