      They need to make money. They need to pay bills and pay employees. If you’re losing money, you have to fire people or downsize, just like any other business. Or borrow money

        So they’re always immune to losing money ? are they protected by law in this regard ?

          Sorry, I think I wasn’t clear. They can’t lose money if they want to remain in business is what I should have said.
