Governments do not have the accountability, the desire, or the ability to bring anything to the masses efficiently. The post office is the closest thing and look how well they are doing these days. (I spent some time working IN a post office (not for) I'm surprised the mail ever gets anywhere). They can fund a great scientist and learn basic things, they can do things first (as the funds are great and the need of return does not exist) but it will always be more expensive and complex then is necessary.

Government can do such pioneering work well, but after its over its best for government to step out of the way.
