I'm not sure you can declare everything that ever received government funding as invented by the government. Jets are "just" pressurized cabins? Why ignore the Wright brothers in this story? Aren't jets really "just" fast planes? And ARPANET is "just" telegrams with computers. On that note, computers were not invented by the government, although they recieved a lot of funding from them.
I don't think oversimplifying this issue helps us discuss it seriously.
