When analyzing the sum of direct and indirect state-owned shares, the state’s ownership in the nuclear power industry, airports, diamond mining, and the military-industrial complex exceeded 70% without accounting for industries represented by a small number of companies in the sample. Therefore, we identified industries with significant state ownership and significant dispersion among its stakes.
It’s not a “military-industrial complex” if there isn’t a bunch of profiteers actively trying to seek war to fill their pockets is there? At least that was my understanding of the phrase, perhaps I have been using it incorrectly this whole time and just lucked out in fitting my conversations anyway.
On the face of it, the term is rather neutral and does not appear to necesitate the existence of war profiteers. Connotations of words often don’t propagate across cultural lines.

Huh that’s a weird way to phrase it.

Anyway that’s a relatively good number to have.
