It would be the same if say, one half of the company was providing bearings to the auto industry and the other the aviation industry, they rely on customers...the government can be a big customer in the market driven capitalist system but it dosen't mean it is the system or "so" intertwined they can't be separate.

You answer is a non-solution to the dilemma. If they aren't intertwined, where does the US Military get their specialized parts from?
