no, government money is correct.
The government dictates how it's spent, it's government money. Only the dimmest of the dim would think government money does come from a tax pool.

NO one said that.

"There is no legal duty of responsibility to your shareholders beyond a) not lying to them"
Read the entire sentence next time.

And it's an accurate Or to be more specific:
In a normal for-profit corporation, especially under Delaware-style corporate law, directors, and officers generally have fiduciary duties to the corporation and its shareholders.
