Why flush money down a losing venture until it starts to see a return? Because they can. And one of the many faults of capitalism is that those with a ton of money can do the stupidest shit and still come out okay.
The whole point of capitalism is, via a free market where YOU have the choice, to let people decide for themselves that those who "do the stupidest shit" CAN'T "come out okay". You surely are not speaking of true, laissez-faire capitalism - you must be speaking of bastardized capitalism (see the USA), which is not capitalism at all.
Lamenting the fact that a successful company can correct mistakes and offer a product that you admittedly buy yourself is no reason to damn the very politico-economic system that allows them to be successful in the first place.
