Like I said the private sector always does it best, there would be no public sector without a private sectorThe private sector is much better at such thingsLol
Bullshit. Some of the most notable tech advances in recent memory were cradled by or developed in partnership with govenrment (NSF, NASA etc).
Just a short list: microchips,Internet,GPS, touch screens, Infant formula, barcoding, vacines, carbon fiber, wind energy and so on.
Who paid for that? Certainly was not the government…
The government dummy, with our taxes slash debt.
You wouldn't give a fucking penny for internet R&D if it was really your money.
R&D without a more or less clear way to profit? Not really.
Some companies do it, but they are the exception not the norm. Norm is for companies to adapt and polish existing tech for consumer ends - thats where private market shines.
