Actually, on your last point Sweden (that has these things) is higher in a WEF innovation index than the US. Not saying that's gospel, but there's at least evidence against your argument: https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2016/08/these-are-the-world-s-most-innovative-economies/ …
we may like social programs, but they have nothing to do with innovation. if below were true it would be counterfactually true, and true everywhere. so: was there innovation before free healthcare?

DARPA invented the Internet; a lot of technological innovation has happened because of government seed money. Who got us to the moon? What about the NIH, which seeds drug and health research. Who developed a certain style of audio storytelling: This American Life was gov. funded

i’m not saying the government doesn’t innovate. in fact i’ve argued the opposite publicly, and just spoke to all of the things here mentioned on twitter (in the context of existential threats as a necessary gov catalyst). i’m saying this has nothing to do with social welfare.
