My comment did not say that the US did not benefit. My first comment did not even use the word "benefit" or any of it's varants. I've stopped reading your comment here, as you obviously are not doing people the curtousy of reading theirs.
My mistake, I thought you were the person I originally replied to. My post was also specifically criticizing how they said we didn't benefit:
"Quick, let’s sell this US funded tech to the Chinese or Japanese or Germans and not actually benefit from home grown research. This has happened so many times over the decades it’s disgusting."
I'm not sure why you'd reply to my post if you're talking about something different, but I'll admit I assumed responses wouldn't be non sequiturs.
Wow, what a crazy coincidence. You stopped reading right before the strong counterargument. Seems to happen a lot on the internet, people just randomly get bored right at that point or find some other reason to be offended and blame the other party.
