Healthcare could help, that's good socialism. Intel is profits and power and control for the sake of it. That's bad socialism.

That way when things fuck up they can point and go SEE SEE IT DOESNT WORK! WE TRIED IT AND IT MADE THINGS WORSE!!

and if it somehow does manage to help or improve things they can now claim they did something smart and take all the credit.

    Well, no. In this case it's probably Intel is collapsing I assume, and they're the only CPU producer native to the US. It'd be a really bad thing strategically to let them fail, so they should be nationalized.
