You usually have pretty sound arguments Sunny, but in my view what you proposed denies the realities of the free market.
If Q tried to hold anybody to ransom in the manner you propose, the next call made by the victim would be to the ACCC, closely followed by a call to John Borghetti, who would happily step into the breach to pick up the slack.

Capitalism plain and simple. Socialise the risk, nationalise the loses. and privatise the profits. In that exact order. Socialise the risk by scaring the crap out of the workforce. But they are all still here. Next nationalise the loses by going to the government and ask for 3 big ones from the taxpayer to cover your bottom line. Yep, tried that too. Last but not least, go private......Its just business.....
