      Yeah when other countries do it, it is seen as a smart move to help their country and employ their own people for years to come.

      When the US does it, it is somehow demonized as being “nationalist” or labeled as being greedy capitalism or some other negative term.

        You know you have the top comment right now, right? I think most everyone agrees that the US should be seeing the benefits of its publicly funded research - except some buttsore Europeans who will never miss an opportunity to piss on / armchair general the US.
