Once again they havent done their homework.
I agree someone haven't done their homework...

For many, many years, the SAS group was providing their owners (the states) with significant dividends. As any responsible long-term owner would, the owners have now participated in a share issuance to protect their own investment. That is not to be confused with "subsidies".

There are two discussions; firstly, should the government be an active owner in large businesses? And secondly, will SAS be viable in the long term? The norwegian people are trapped as owners wrt the first question; the second one is held as a clause for the new share issue.
