1) I see now where misunderstanding is coming from.
I'm stating that government is poor at innovating.
You are stating that government is a good source of funding.
These statements do not contradict to each other.
I agree that government funds lots of projects.
It's just that practical results are not impressive at all.
2) Considering the cost of "Man on the Moon" project, the benefits for us are pretty slim.
If I take from you, say, $10K, and then give you back $3K, I can claim that you should be happy, because I'm helping you by giving $3K. Right?
3) CERN is NOT a government.
