Original Note:
Public investment in R&D as a % of GDP briefly peaked in the 1960s (space race) at 1.86%; averaged 1.1% in the 70s-80s & 0.75% since the 1990s. Business investments significantly increased over that time however, with the total (govt + business) R&D as % of GDP growing. https://ncses.nsf.gov/pubs/nsf23339
