If the suggestions of any committees, panel, or boards, that are assembled are done so with the express desire to share ideas and opinions, and to take these thoughts and add them to the pile of discourse.  If on the other hand, high profile corporations and their executives are brought together to give the appearance that everybody is onboard, then there is a problem.  The whole situation makes it appear as if these companies are looking for government handouts or special consideration.  Nothing wrong with that, pleases shareholders.  But to the average Joe with little or nothing in the stock market?  Tesla was built on government handouts, and it just proves that it doesn't matter which party is in office for the billionaires who want to remain so.
