Alright. As to your question, the only difference between one of your state or private corps, which you own 100% of, and a public corp, in which you sell down to 51% ownership of, is that you will receive 100% of the "profit payments" of the private or state corp but only 51% of those payments from the public corp, with the balance of the 49% of payments divided among the remaining share holders.
