I think the point is more
that if the only research funding available is that which comes from private companies, then they're naturally going to be more likely to fund projects which look like resulting in short term gain rather than taking the longer view and funding research which may well be of great value in the longer term.

I have no problem with private companies funding research. I think there need to be other sources too.
