Weren't you talking about investing public money?

Also, I'm all for it when paypayers money go to new struggling but promising startups, fb is not one of them. I can't really see why they would need governmental financial help other that to support corrupt politicians.
Is the question about what returns on the investment or about who the government invests in?
They got subsidies, which is which is far from beeing an investment. And FB isn't very eager to pay taxes either.
