It's a good idea in theory.

In practice a conservative government will end up selling off and privatizing the company. Subsequent governments will still act like they own it though, because that one company now controls 99% of the country's infrastructure. The share price will then stagnate forever.

Kinda damned if you do and damned if you don't.
