No, government spending got us super expensive connections between a handful of universities. Free markets took that and brought it as the internet to our doors. Military invented expensive microwave radar. Free markets turned it into $100 kitchen appliances. The government put satellites on orbit at tremendous cost for military positioning system. Free markets put Waze driving directions on my phone. Yes, we have a bunch of expensive things due to government spending. Imagine how many more we would've had and how much cheaper if free markets were allowed to create them...
