FB,
No I have not owned a business, but have managed one.
As stated above- Relevance?

Are you serious that you wish that we enter into a formal contract with the US government for the supply of the GPS signal.
What would you want in this contract?
How/where would it be enforceable?
What would you expect us to pay?
What penalties would you put on the US if the signal was interrupted?

The Russians are developing their own satellite network, and I believe the Europeans as well.

Sorry, if I've misunderstood what you are implying, the signal is free, other countries are developing alternative sources. I doubt that, even if we did have a contract, that this would stop the US turning off or corrupting the signal if it was in their national interest.
