The majority of Government jobs are transactional.

there seem to be plenty of government chosen "innovative" exploits recently that were subsidized with "incentives to increase innovation" and subsequently couldn't find demand(Volt) or couldn't compete in the marketplace(Solyndra)....
These are different scenarios.

As usual you're pretty much missing the point completely. This isn't a situation where the government is dictating anything, just helping to defray a little risk as an incentive.
