@peterrenshaw @natematias I didn't get through the first paragraph: "Pure science does not always stimulate innovation...". Of course it doesn't! If it did, companies would be desperate to invest. I don't think innovation is what they think it is either. It's the fact that pure research is risky speculation that makes 'state interference' in capitalism important. When it works, it's creation. That's the time for commercial organisations to innovate on the new idea, make big profits and pay tax.
