Explain to me

if you possibly can, the difference between:

the government lending money to a company, then moving in and kicking out the CEO and taking over
And:
Don Corleone's offer of "protection" and then taking over the business

Someone yesterday on the radio referred to this as a mafia power grab, and I think they have it precisely correct. What a joy Hope & Change (TM) is!
