Greetings from Ukraine! Country at war, after decided to move from Soviet world to West.

When Ukraine is different, but we have very same troubles - we learned that Universities should make us new technologies, and why I said about war - new defensive technologies (or offensive if you wish), but they not do what they should, and we are defenseless because of this.

But we have not tough anti-monopoly laws any time. But we seen few successful commercial scientific entities, and near nothing from Universities, except propaganda, very similar to aggressive religious.

I think, answer is easy (at least for Ukraine) - our Universities become shelters of what they named "pure science". And scientists think themselves as monks of these sanctuaries, and totally avoid to work.
