        The taxpayer return is that we can finally start bringing cutting edge fabrication back to the US.

        This is a bit like saying ‘Schools are such a ripoff for the taxpayer, the corporations get the benefit of knowledgeable workers!!!’

        You want an IP deal? Fine, we should work out a licensing partnership, but this is the most important technology of our time, the benefit is clear.

          Hmm… Would a corporate entity accept such a return?

          I dont think so in fact they expect us to to pay for their R&D.

          Why does private capital gets special treatment and has requiremets to provide economics return to the owner while taxpayer’s fund are treated like free money to increase returns for the owners of private capital.?
