Therefore, it had to be either full nationalization, or in whatever limited areas you do nationalize, you can't allow anyone else to compete. That only applies if the competition is all cooperative based or nonprofit pr whatever where solvency is the driving goal. As long as the government's competition's revenue is above cost there should be some amount of profit to pay for services that the government could extract. It would probably be a mix of high volume products of some sort (like generic drugs or something) and highly niche products where they can use their existing breadth to make it worthwhile (like a federal Uber). This isn't to say it's a good idea or that it wouldn't be perilous. Although I would be curious what a federal cab service would look like.
