Historical precedence, perhaps?  In the UK, the government is "priva-
tising" many resources previously owned by the gov't.  (These being
British Telecom, British Airways, British Leyland, etc.)  The government
has consistantly sold the company for much less than its real value.

Who can afford to put out alot of money to buy large numbers of shares
in these companies (and therefore turn quite large profits)?  Guess!
