The government is in the business of encouraging people to do things which need doing but are too risky to do without assistance.

The government encourages folks through tax breaks, guaranteed loans and in many other ways I am sure.

Just making business expenses tax deductable is an encouragement. Meals being deductable supports our food industry. Mortgage interest being deductable supports loans......and so forth.
