@TrevorGoodchild @WashedOutGundamPilot You have to give them credit, they are smart enough to detect a threat anywhere to their power, and then act quickly to subdue it. It doesn't matter if it costs them big money either, they'll spend what it takes because they know they can always make more money.

But if they lose power, if they truly lose it, they might not get it back ever. Or it will cost them far more to do so.
